Headknocker Utv issues

So I flipped my utv the other day. Afterwards it started fine then the next day it started fine. Leave it a few days, today wouldn't start. Jumped it, it started let it run for 15 min killed it then nothing after so I grabbed my old cables went to jump it and it started burning both positive and negative side(burnt the battery post clen off in seconds) so I went get a new battery and still nothing. Lights won't even come on. Nothing at all. Please help!!!!!

Trace the electrical and see if you can find anywhere the wires got pinched or jacked up all I can think.

If there was enough current flowing to burn the poles off of your battery you may have a serious problem. I wonder why there was not fuse to protect that from happening? Definitely some kind of short

It didn't do anything to my truck. There's no fuse to stop the post from burning but fusses to stop wires from burning and they didn't pop. Oh well bringing to repair man
