Can anyone help with this problem- the ignition is on, lights work but fuel pump doesn't prime, and doesn't attempt to turn over, no sound at all. All fuses and relays checked, thinking maybe its the ECU but not sure how to check.:crazy. Not sure how good the battery is but definately not dead cos the lights work.:banghead .Have made fuel pump run by bypassing straight to battery, so that works! Not sure what else to check.

Put key in and turn on, dash lights come on an the rev counter needle wipes it`s face and the fuel pump primes.
Have you an alarm on it ? . If so this will cause problems for the battery.....loose it. (disconnect but leave on for Ins. purpose) .
Charge the battery and give it a stab ,if this fails get a new battery. (How old is the battery.?.

Give the battery a good charge & check the kill button. Is it in gear?

It's prob the battery. Your Ape is a testy little ***** with it's juice. Had the same problem yesterday. I charged it for hours using both 2 and 10 settings. After getting sick of waiting, I hit it with the 50 quick start switch (kinda like a little shot of nitrous) and WHAMMO! My Ape woke and off I went. Started fine again after riding it around for a bit. Just gotta go with the flow on those batteries.
