Hi there.
New novice but be grateful for assistance. Just bought boat with 2006 50hp Suzuki DF outboard engine. Engine serviced, battery charged. Boat taken out all working perfectly, engine starting everytime no problems. Suddenly engine would not start, clicking coming from starter motor but not turning over engine. fuel pump charging could be heard. Seemed as if massive battery drain cos trim tilt stopped working and everything faded eletrical on engine and yet fishfinder GPS working no probs and 12.2 volts showing on battery! Towed in. Fitted new heavy duty battery at mooring, engine started and ran perfectly on rope pull but starter motor or solonoid still clicking and would not turn engine. Must repair myself all cash spent on purchase! any help greatly appreciated.
Many thanks to anybody who can help!
