I tried starting it yesterday and had the same issue. The trickle charger read at 90% this morning but I couldn't get it to start. I checked the battery with a multimeter and it read 12.6v to 12.9v so I'm starting to think that it's not the battery. I've replaced the ignition switch about 9 months ago so I don't think it's that either. Any ideas?
Here's a video of my attempt to start it - https://imgur.com/a/0yPJHbQ |
Your voltage is correct but it is amperage that spins the starter.
You need to have the battery "load tested" that is the proper test to do in order to know your battery is good.
So give us more info...is it not cranking over properly?
Or is is cranking over properly and just not wanting to fire up?
