Hello, I recently got an Apex Gt, I only put 300 miles on it so far. I went out riding yesterday and came back and put it in my garage. Then I put heat on it today and tried starting it up and it turned over alittle with low idle for about 5 seconds then shut off. Ever sense it will not turn over, any thoughts? The sled has about 3,200 miles.

Is there power? (do the lights come on when you turn the key to the on position)
When you turn the key to the on position do you hear the fuel pump?
If you don't hear a fuel pump it could be a relay but the fact that it won't turn over at all sounds like power, not fuel.

define 'not turn over'? Does it crank but not fire? When you turn the key what happens?

I tried this morning again, and it started but then shut off after 5 seconds and it was on low idle. The fuel pump was on and it cranks but just won't start.

It's a process of elimination, fuel or spark.
Is it getting fuel, and is there good spark?
First thing I would do is replace the plugs, see what happens.
Also make sure you have fresh fuel, and check battery condition.

I just got home and went to the sled and started it up with no problem. Let it idle for about 10 minutes than shut it off and turned it back on again with no problem. Don't know what happened but hopefully it stays good
