It starts blinking at a low voltage and or over voltage
if you go out and put a volt meter on the battery with the key off it should read 12.4 volts or more if its not I would charge the battery first

if you have installed a bunch of acc. you can take the ground off the battery put a volt amp meter on DCAmps inbetween the ground post on the battery and the and the battery lead and that will tell you current draw it should not be over .01 dca (ma)

if it was me id test the battery first after charging the battery
load test
hook up the volt meter to the pos and neg on the battery with key off after charging it should read 12.6 or greater if so crank the engine for 15 seconds with the meter still hooked up and during cranking if the voltage drops below 9.5 volts you need a new battery from utvcrap.com
