    Went to turn on the four wheeler no starting, just a clicking sound in the fuse box? It’s a 2011 Polaris and has never had an issue popping off. Had a battery maintainer on it so who knows? Any ideas or help would be awesome!

    I would first check the battery make sure you getting 12.5 volts. Put a charger on it and see if it will turn over
    (MY BATTERY CHARGER HAS A START MODE AT 55 AMPS)

    What kind of Polaris? Xp? My starter went bad on me up at lake winnipeg…on the ice! All mine did was click, I tried jumping it, no luck. I replaced the battery, no luck. Ended up being a bad solenoid in the starter. Whatever you do don’t pay Polaris $400 for theirs buy an aftermarket. You get the same exact one for half the price.

    Check for a loose or corroded connection at the battery terminals.

    If.your battery is a non-sealed (has a vent tube) check the electrolite level in every cell. Even a trickle charger can accelerate the Loss. If your lucky , topping off with distilled water and a full recharge will get you back in the game.

    The smaller the battery. The less reliable. ATV batts are all over the place. Almost as bad as flasher batts.
