I have straight inboard 350 MAG MPI motor paired with 72C Velvet Drive. 300hp variety.
Came with boat, showed 1000 hrs. I went thru the motor and completely rebuilt it, top to bottom.
Installed new injectors too. Put original ECM and harnesses back on, and when I turn the key dash/gauges light up,
but I dont hear the fuel pump cycle or anything else.
I tried connecting my TechMate tool to it, and with key on tool screen lights up (DLC port has power),
but when connecting to 'MERCRUISER EFI' it fails to communicate with the ECM.![Mad :mad: :mad:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
There are three fuses on the EFI harness (by the starter relay and ECM), 15/15/10 amps.
Only fuse #16 (15amp ECM/DLC/Battery) has power to it.
Other two fuses, no juice.![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Ignition System Relay and Fuel Pump Relay all ring out good in continuity test.
Main engine fuse on the starter is good as well, and passes 12v thru to the motor with key on.
For this test distributor was not plugged in, didnt think it was necessary? Also ignition coil was not plugged in.
I left those plugs off because I was working around where EFI and Engine harnesses plug into eachother and
ringing out continuity between male and female harness ends.
Any advice on how to approach this? I guess I can give power to fuel pump directly to see if it will energize?
How do I test the ECM to make sure its good? Dont want to burn anything up! All help appreciated, thanks guys![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
