Inherited boat and motor
Motor has set for 6 months
hooked it up with muffs today
battery good
Fresh fuel
turned key....not turn over....buzzing sound
suspected starter (although it's new this year)
Took cowling off
got jumper cables and shorted out starter
Motor turned over !
took jumper cables off
turned ignition key again
buzzing sound coming from behind plastic panel
Removed panel
buzzing coming from a little blue "box" labled CDI Electronics #144-4857-16
Wondering all of your thoughts on what to do next.....?
thanks Much

Ha..!
should have checked CDI part number before post
I apologize
CDI module above is an "oil warning module"....
Oil reservoir is full of oil
At least I know what the blue box is.... but still wondering best advice on how to proceed.
