"I recently purchased a 06 DF1

"I recently purchased a 06 DF115 with only 45 hrs on it, and I just got everything hooked up and went to try and start it and nothing... no clicking no wurring no nothing.. the trim/tilt on the outboard will work but nothing on the controls works at all, and I tried the lanyard switch it is not that....

any help is greatly appreciated

TIA"
