Bandit 250xp Not Starting

I am leaning towards the ignition switch / Glow plug/Heater Button. The process of turning it involves turning the key while holding down the heater button then after it starts leaving the button pushed in for 3 seconds. Now there isn't any click to the button and when it fires over it just quits. Has this happened to any of you?
 
Thats not a heater button, probably the murphy switch. They go bad, not a big deal. Its a safety for low oil pressure, but the switch goes bad.
 
It's not a heater button. It's an oil sentry. Check the fuse on the under side of the box on the back of the switch. If you loose oil pressure, that switch will kill/save the motor. You need to press the button to override it while the engine builds oil pressure. Btw, just for fun check your oil level.
 
Not trying to knock bandit but I know about 12 around here including ours brand new wouldn't start and they had faulty relays in them so they don't even try. So I'd get a hold of your dealer and ask I know ours was under a warranty issue but it was 4 hours old to so call.
 
The fuse! It looked good , replaced anyway and it fired right up!!! This machine has many hours on it but keeps on eating!!! Thanks again
