Twice I had similar problems, both times was a broken wire at the hub near the coil magnet.

I agree with bigfoot, I've seen the wires break at the struts near the hub. If they're ok, check you're wheel bearing adjustment and change the hub oil. Those Polaris hubs need constant maintenance to work well.
