    Electric start clicking?

    by pchase007 » Wed Feb 10, 2021 1:57 pm

    Hi, I just put new battery on and all I'm getting is a clicking sound near the battery terminal when I push the start button. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot? Could it be a bad battery? Checking here before dropping another $80 on a battery.

    Bike starts up when pushing it and then throwing it into gear but the electric start doesn't want to work. All I get is a click noise beneath the seat towards the back and above/to the right of the battery compartment. Thanks!

    Two things.
    Relay is bad - [water ingress].
    Battery does not have enough amperage.
