I can't keep my ds450 battery to stay charged and ideas what would be the problem. Some times I will go to start it push the button and nothing happens and then all of a sudden ill push it again and it starts

replace the batt. it may not hold a charge. if thats not it. it may be a loose cable at the batt.
it may be your stator. the stator bolts come loose and mest up the stator real good. also replace all 3 relays.

I've put 3 batteries in it so far lol and I've never taken the stator cover off to check the bolts so when I take it off and there loose that's prob my problem? And I've never changed any fuses. Where the best place to get new stator from and where the best place to get the relays from

relays at autozone ,kragen ,pep boys for like $8 each.
check all you fuses 2

stators cost $600 i would say ebay or forums.
you can also test your stator.
i had that same thing on my 2008 and my dealer took care of it cause it was a recall. free of charge. its really easy to take the stator cover out. and check for loose or broken bolts

i am only giving you ideas it may be other things.

i removed the cover my self. bolts where broken.

i talk to the dealer and they did it for free.

you should ask first so they dont charge you. they even replace the flywheel.

they will need the vin# and it has to be a 2008 model.
