Default Buzzing Relay 2005 Kodiak 400


My 400 Kodiak is 7 months old. I started it up one evening to get ready for next day. When I got to where I was going the next morning I only heard a loud buzzing sound from under the seat when the start button was pushed. All battery connections seem clean and battery has 12 volts. Any ideas.

Battery is dying. If you have a voltmeter, hook it up to the battery , and youll see 12.3 or so volts, now hit the starter button...and youll see the voltage drop. If you see this, then have the battery charged up, and get it load tested, any auto parts store will do this for free.
As a verification, have you tried jump starting it with another battery? If it will jump start, then you can rule out other parts being bad. Just remember, if you jump start from a car or truck, make sure the motor of that car or truck is <u>off</u> when jump starting.
