Boat ran fine couple weeks ago.
Batteries charged
trim works at engine.
fuses all look good, not sure which should have power with ignition not working?
Power to starter
power to alt.
no beep or lights or clicks at key switch
no volt meter or other meters.

any advice?
Thanks very much.
 
First thing is check the big 30 amp fuse to on the right side of the fuse box - #7. Pull it and test it with an ohm meter.

Next pull the wiring harness to your key switch and gauges where it connects to the ECU and inspect for corrosion or a burn't plug.

Then, find the wires to the tach in your console and back track until you find the 7.5 amp fuse in the harness and check that.
 
Thanks I will check today.
One question. Is the 7.5 fuse on the switch side or the motor side?
Also, should I spray anything into the connectors after I check them.
thanks
 
Okay,
checked 30 amp fuse it was good replaced it anyway.
checked all connections under dash. Nothing looked burnt or wet.
7.5 fuse tested good. Going to grab some electrical cleaner and spray all connectors. Is there a way to test power to the key switch to determine if switch is faulty?
thanks
