Thank you! Cleaning the terminals with sand paper and a wire brush worked like a charm!

Hello I have a 2019 GP1800r I’m running into issues with. I’ve recently replaced the battery, and I’m having a no start issue. Dash lights up when lanyard is in, but no crank. I’m getting a weird buzzing noise from my fuse box. Could I have damaged something with water? I am completely lost. Thanks

[@DIYwithMichaelBorders]

Thanks for watching, any update? It may be that your Starter Relay has failed however being a 2019 ski…it shouldn’t fail that soon…🤔…your actual Starter shouldn’t fail that soon either. We would start with inspecting the electrical box and verifying that nothing is wet, rusted, loose, or damaged. If all looks good, we would likely move on to replacing Starter Relay.

Great thanks the cleaning helped. I now get a humm from what is probably the starter motor but it wont attempt to turn over any ideas ?

[@DIYwithMichaelBorders]

@@IDVDalot Good morning ☕️ A few things can cause this. 1. Battery low voltage 2. Faulty Starter Relay 3. Faulty Starter We would start by verifying that the battery is fully charged followed by replacing Starter Relay if the charged battery doesn’t help. Below is a video link showing the replacement of the Starter Relay. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3LZc6Ctq6yar8Usi=fYGY1ye8nEbX3qzC If the Starter Relay doesn’t fix issue, it’s likely a worn out and needing to be replaced Starter. If that’s the case, below is a helpful video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2nCk5hsa9djj9ksi=zed48a2RLev9jiao 👍🧰

Anything else to check after that step?

[@DIYwithMichaelBorders]

Thanks for watching, how old is your battery? Have you replaced starter relay in recent years? It’s possible…however unlikely…that the opposite end battery cables and ground connection are loose on starter.
