Hey Guys,
I was plowing the other day and the display read "Engine Hot" then went away after a short idle period. The day after I went to start it and all I got was a clicking sound. I jumped it and when I went to use the winch it instantly died on me. I jumped it again and tried to move it inside, however it died while moving it. Am I safe to assume that the battery is dead? I do not have access to a volt-meter for the battery. The battery is new as of 5 months ago, however bought it from the local Auto-Zone and not a top of the line battery.
I have a 2007 Sportsman 500 EFI.
thanks for any input!!
