Default Anyone help with starting!!

okay so i have been on here before to ask about starting. my wheeler is acting weird starting. if i push the button it will try to turn over but then wont. i can hit the buton a fewmore times and it will eventually start, but once its warm it wont start without a push start. i thought the battery so i bought a ne one to still have the same problem, so i took off the starter and had it tested with them telling me it was perfect. what else can be causing this problem?????? thanks a bunch any ideas at all would b great

make sure all connectors to everything is tight. Check the ground wires
put some dielectric grease in all the electrical connections
put the battery on a tender the night before you go riding
check the fuses
if none of that works then maybe someone else can help

so you hit the button and nothin happens basically?or it turns over for a while then starts?could be a bad button if its not starting?or if turning over for a while you can adjust your tps voltage which will help!but as said above run threw your harness maybe you got a cut wire or corroded connection!

Default oh my god i finally fixed it!!!!!!!!!

okay so i hav been on here several times over this thing starting. so after i had tried EVERYTHING i pulled the top cover off the engine and found the small spring on the end of the exhaust cam had broken. turns out that operates the automatic compression release. if the engine has full compression the starter will not turn it over!! just letting anyone with the same problem maybe have a place to look. thanks
