Starter ‘whine’

2011 RZR-S 800:

Noticed a while back that after a long ride, when trying to start the RZR, the starter would sometimes make a high-pitched whining/squealing sound, instead of spinning the motor over. If I stop cranking it, then try again, it spins over and starts right up, every time, just fine.

Last weekend, it happened every time I started the machine. Haven’t modified or touched anything in that area…. does this happen to others? Is there an easy fix? Not sure if it’s the starter going out, shims, weak wiring, or ?

Thanks :redrzr:
