Starter problem 2017 gtx. I replaced the battery today. Pushing the start button wakes up the display. When I hold the button down to start the machine gives a thud one time but doesn't turn over or start. I'd appreciate any help here. Thanks
 
load test the battery,,,pull the plugs see if it turns over easier,,,anything in the pump area?
 
Had this happen too. My issue was the oil sensor cable came unseated. Check and reseat all your cable connections and air hoses esp in and around your battery

Thank you for the info. I’m going to check. I was also told the starter solenoid may be an issue. Thanks again
 
Solenoid , wire resistance , bad battery could be the cause. If the battery is load tested and it still does it then usually I just hold the start button for about 5 seconds and then see if any of the cable ends are hot , and that includes the solenoid. If they are all cold then it could be the starter, It is always wise to start with testing the battery first.
 
I thought it may be the battery. I replaced it.
Bought a solenoid yesterday. If not that it's going in for service. I appreciate the input thanks
