    No power on yellow-red wire to starter...please identify this Mericruiser part

    Thanks again, Lou...I won't mess with the solenoids if they both play a role in the proper function of the trailer switch as I'm able to move the prop up and down at that point...I'll focus on the throttle's trim button and see if a wire has been compromised relevant to the "up" trim...though...

    Thanks Lou...the attach point for the wiring harness on the "new" console, the prongs that insert into the original wiring, don't match exactly...I tried to swap the yellow-red/red-blue wires around the four prongs with no results...but the old ignition fired up with the new 20amp fuse...

    God Bless you Bondo and Lou...you guys got me to thinking and two-things were preventing my boat from starting. First, I went the extra mile to renovate the older boat with a new dash and new ignition....nice...all the switches worked but the ignition...it was four prong and my wiring harness...

    Thank you...I replaced the glass fuse and the housing as the old fuse, though "good" as the filament was intact, the old fuse cap has separated from the glass housing and was stuck in the fuse housing. This is the inline 20amp fuse (red wire) running along the bulkhead of the transom wall behind...

    Thank you Lou...when I turn the key to ignition...nothing powers-up but I do have power to my blower motor, lights, bilge pumps. I traced power from the battery to the starter (large red battery wire) - 12.7 at the 90amp fuse. From the fuse, 12.3-12.7 but the smaller yellow-red wire attached to...

    Control lever is in neutral...tried two ignitions...no response...as I mentioned, the slave solenoid is receiving power from the red-blue wire but it's not transferring that power to the yellow-red wire...there is no voltage to the yellow-red wire at either terminal on the solenoid...for that...

    Thank you Bondo...truly appreciate the information. Earlier, I finally located a legible copy of the vessel's wiring and studied it. I took the multimeter and checked, once again, the power to the starter from the battery and from the starter...all good. I then checked the power to the canon...

    I own an 06 Azure DB powered by a 2015 I/O 5.7 350 MPI Mericruiser engine..... Recently purchased and I changed out the dash with all new switches and ignition. New blower motor. Went to warm the engine for an oil change, nothing...all accessories work but no power at ignition. I've changed the...
