does it crank over when you hit the button, or does it do nothing? If nothing happens when you hit the button, then its the battery or something else electrical. Try jump starting it, if that doesnt work, than something failed ie-starter, starter button, fuse, or possibly a wire got disconnected.

my 400 did the same thing and i kept blowing my fuses, but only if i hit the headlight switch. i was inches away from buying a new wiring harness before me gramps jumped in and traced it down to the positive cable leading into the start was coroaded(???) definantly check the fuse. and as far as leaking oil none of my friends leak oil, and neither does mine, and i have 3 friends with the same quad. i would clean the underbody and start it and let idle for a while and see if it doesnt show up.
