Motor won't turnover

Remembrance

When I turn my boat key to start I get absolutely nothing. Changed ignition switch and battery terminals. Anyone have any ideas as to want is wrong?

Jump the starter solenoid... its atop your engine on same bracket as red breaker button.. 

Turn key on at helm, lay a screwdriver across where the two bolts are, bridging them... your starter should turn.  

$15 part five minute swap.

Neutral interlock? Wiggle the throttles.

Do you have a safety cutoff switch at your throttle? It’s possible it was turned off by accident.

Breaker on top of the engine?

All three of those will let the engine turn when start position hit... solenoid won't. 

Ian

Nope. If neutral interlock is not made nothing - no clicks, dead as such. I have that on mine at times and need to wiggle.

Is the battery switch on?

212rowboat was spot on. It was the solenoid. Thanks for the tip!

Did you get a mercury solenoid?

Can I get a pic of where the starter solenoid is on a 350 MAG please? Port motor no go.

I haven’t looked for it on my 330 but it should be on top of the engine under the flame arrestor.

If it’s the battery, try the emergency switch by the battery switch.

Figured it out. I plugged the neutral safety switch into the wrong harness
