Apex just buzzes when trying to start

[06dukeGT]

06 apex gt. Going to start sled turn the key to cycle pump then attempt to start and it buzzes had battery charged and had the sled started a month earlier. So I tore it down to battery and it feels like the buzz is coming from that area can't decipher from exactly where. Thoughts?

Is pump cycling?

 

[06dukeGT]

Yup. When I turn key to start after cycling it makes a buzzing noise. Battery? Everything else seems fine.

Could very well be the starter solenoid buzzing. They are known to fail. Try holding the key to start position for a bit and see if it finally cranks.

Could try hooking jumper cables to the truck see if it cranks

Starter relay maybe?

Start by charging the battery or jumping off your truck. If it turns over that eliminates a lot of potentials. If it does nothing then you've got an electrical issue.

Hooked up jumper cables this morning. And sled turned over. So guess my yusa finally died. Thanks for responses.

when my batt died i went to dealer and bought new one, when i got home and took apart it was the wrong battery it was a little larger in size and had more cc amps and pisitve and neg posts were on opposite sides, called dealer back he said he screed up and to come back and switch it, it was for a motorcycle or somthing, i asked if it would hurt anything using this one he said no, so i installed this one and rerouted cables and works great, lots of juice, price was the same , so id put larger one in if u need one anyway! plus i didnt want to drive there and back again(2hours) of time just to switch it out, a dumb mistake turned out good, i went from boiling mad to s--- right on!!
