98 warrior not taking charge and just clicking

hello all, i have a 98 warrior I got with a trade, The kid before me did alot of after market stuff to it, axle, hot cam, wiseco piston , and a few other's can remember off hand. I put the new battery on charge and it fired right up. now today it turned over well but it wouldn't fire. so now the batt is dead and even after being on charge all day nothing happens but a clicking .. any ideas ? I would try a roll start but we have about a foot + of snow. I tried roll starting with my neighbors quad but on the snowy road the wheels just skid and dont roll... any help will be appreciated....also my charger is showing a fully charged battery

Bad (or loose) connection.

Weak (or bad) battery..

Bad Relay (solenoid)...

Weak starter....

just a few shots in the dark.

now im sure that the batt. is keeping a charge, it is the solinoid clicking. Could it be that it is bad? if it was would it click ?

ok, im back again . Same damn problem new starter just a clicking. I've taken the screw driver to the solinoid and still nothing. When I do that though seems like I get a stronger click from the solinoid though. Sound like it's bad ?

Sounds like the solenoid I had the same thing on my 99 Warrior.Just be sure to check your battery connections,and connections on your solenoid etc before you put the money out for a new solenoid. Almost 75% of the time an electrical problem is due to a bad connection so just be sure to be thorough whenyoure checking your connections so youdont spend your hard earned dough unnecessarily.
