Having an issue with my merc 3.0l o/i even starting. Starting was fine the other day, I left the key on and tried starting it a few hours later and it did nothing. Battery is fine, hyd pump works fine and all accessories. I by passed the solenoid by taking pliers to the single yellow wire on it to the positive red wires and the starter kicked over so I know the starter is fine. Checked the ignition fuse, its fine as well. Does this 100% mean my solenoid is gone, and if so, where is the best place to buy a new one?
