So i bought my girlfriend an 08 phazer rtx with 1300 miles on it the sled is in like new condition and i have started it and rode it around a few times with no problems at all other than the slow starting but it has always started right up. I took it out yesterday and it was almost as if the battery was dieing, once it started cranking it slowly just died off and the dash went out (Sled also has a new battery in it). I then hooked it up to my trickle charger for the hell of it and it was fully charged rather quickly so im assuming that is good. I then got it to keep the dash on and i could hear it priming and seemed normal but it would just turn over very slowly over and over and over but wouldnt fire. I woke up this morning and went out to mess around with it some more and now nothing will happen at all no dash lights no priming no clicking no nothing! Hooked it back up to the trickle charger and here i am.. I have been reading forums but cant find anything that sounds like my issue, i was going to look at the starter as ive read those bolts loosen, also was going to trouble shoot the relay but it was working last night just not turning over fast enough?? Any ideas?? Thanks!!
 

Well turns out that 40 amp female fuse was blown so back to the starter i assume? How hard is that to get to is it as bad as everything else on this sled to work on?
 
If you mean the fuse it's actually easy to replace it should be right in front of the battery.
 
No, the starter already swapped the relay and have power back.. just no starting just slow turning over..
