    Hello members,

    so my 360 has been turning over without issue since I bought it recently. When I went to turn the key it sounds like a Tommy gun or machine gun like sound. To me it sounds like a battery issue. Went to the manual to see how to charge and it says it’s a closed circuit. Any tips or tricks out there? Thanks!

    It sounds like the solenoid on the starter circuit will not stay closed, and thus is chattering between on and off. Maybe a battery charge will help, but given what we know about the 360 electrical system, you probably will need a new battery.

    Yeah, start with the battery, from your initial description it sounds like it’s about at the end of its life. About 4 years is what you can expect. If it’s been off a trickle charger, it’ll probably take a day or more if it’s revivable.
    Don’t jump start (see many threads on that).
