Hey there,

I have a Suzuki four stroke 15hp outboard from around 2005 and it has worked flawlessly up till now. The electric start just stopped working one morning. I used it on a friday and on saturday nothing. It wouldn't even turn over. The battery was full and fish finder was working. I cleaned all the wires and terminals but still nothing. The motor starts first pull manually so it can't be anything to do with the motor itself.
Any ideas?

Thank you

Is the starter relay clicking, if no relay are starter wires getting hot? If eguip with relay, check relay, wires to relay. and fuse.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.
The starter relay is not clicking. The wires are not getting hot.
I think I will have to take it into the local marina so they can take a look at it.
I cannot find the owners manual anywhere so I wouldn't even know where to start to look for the fuse.

Thanks for your help
