I’ve got a 2012 Ranger 500 with starting problem. Most times it won’t attempt to start but if you keep trying it will randomly decide to turn over and runs great. When you turn it off it takes many attempts to crank it again. After turning key off there is a ticking sound.
Dash panel lights up fine and it cranks strong when it decides to, so I don’t think battery is bad.
There’s a big square 4 prong Fuel/Ignition fuse in the panel, but I can’t tell if it’s bad.

Anyone have any idea what it could be? Thanks

I haven't worked on one but Yamahas have a real shite starter solenoid. I would check that until someone more knowledgeable with this brand can help. I converted my grizzly to a solenoid from a Ford.

Starter solenoid like above stated. If you’re in a bind, you can tap on the solenoid with a wrench or grab the nut on the solenoid with a pair of Pliers. Pretty common issue in side by sides/mud engines.
