Default eiger not starting with push button

hi there forum. I am a newbie. I have a 2006 eiger. when I try to start with the electric start, I get nothing but clicking at the relay. I hear nothing at the starter. I pulled the starter and through 12 to it and it works. but when I try the electric start I get zip......I don't get it. I also tried to just throw a straight 12 directly to the starter while in the atv and it at least made noise but wouldn't turn over. I can, however, pull start it. any help out there will definitely help. he said if I can get it to run, it's mine!! thanks for your time.

Usually if you eliminate the starter that leaves the starter solenoid.

yes there is. follow the positive cable from the battery. It runs to the solenoid. I believe it is under the seat.
