Need Help Guys

Ok, I tried to crank my 2009 Coyote earlier and batery was not strong enough for it to crank. Put it on the tender for a few hours to charge. Now when I turn the key on the bike immediately starts spinning over and will crank, starter stays engaged and horn blows. Even took the controls apart and unplugged the throttle side controls and still tries to crank as soon as you turn the key on. Has anyone had this issue before. I tried searching but could not find anything. Any help is appreciated and thanks. Darin

That is my first thought that it is stuck in the engaged position.

My first guess would be starter solenoid

I would agree but due the horn blowing , I would say their could be a short in a wire. May want to look at your starter contacts to see if they need cleaned, also check your wires to see if something is causing it to ground.

I've experienced this before on both the Mastiff and K9. It seems to be a temperature related fault and in all cases once the bike/ehc came up to @ 60 degrees or better it disappeared. I've also had success by disconnecting the positive and negative harness leads and grounding them by putting them together. hope that helps.

I'd say u got a wire shorted out somewhere and possibly a bad ignition switch... my 2 cents

Ok spent a couple hours this morning going over every inch of the Dog and found a broken wire going to the Speedo that haad to be causing the problem. Fixed that wire and the Dog is back to growling like Normal. Thanks for the Help guys and have a Merry Christmas.
