Anybody else ever notice that when you start up your BLAST! it takes just a second or two for a soft buzz to sound in the system before you can hit hit the starter button after turning the key on ???

If I turn on the key and hit the starter button too quickly ... without a slight pause to let the electrical system "initiate" the speedometer will record a slower than accurate reading .... about 1/2 to 2/3 actual speed. If I then stop ... shut off the key ... and restart pausing the couple seconds for the buzz ... then all is well and the speedometer operates just fine.

What else does this electrical devise control ???

hmmm.... Interesting. I HAVE noticed this soft buzz when I turn the key.... but never hit the starter before it finished.

I wonder why this happens?
