BF150 Intermittent Starting Problem

[macdog58]

I've just purchased a 2017 BF150 with about 60 hours on it. This problem occurs intermittently. When i turn the key to start, I only get one beep, not two, and then the engine will not turn over. If I get two beeps, the engine starts with no problem and runs flawlessly. My question is what does the second beep indicate? Any thoughts on where to look to find this gremlin?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated!!!

One beep usually means the kill switch is activated. check your kill switch connections

Sorry, mis read both this and the 250 post. One beeo means it is not in neutral. If you shift a little eithervside of neutral while holding key in start positon it will start. You need to check your shift cable adjustment

Thanks Lang! I messed around with it a bit today, and that appears to be exactly what it is. Thanks for the quick response.
