After running all day I brought boat in to launch site. Backed trailer in and went back to boat to load. Turned the key and nothing. Checked neutral safety and still nothing. Checked lanyard switch and still nothing. Tried the tilt/trim….nothing. Now I did notice while running the volt meter was showing 16+ (pegged). I took apart a large fused wire at the battery and cleaned. I then checked all the fuses under dashboard and checked power to the ignition. All good. Tried starting again and it started. Today I pulled the large fused line and tried the trim switch. It still worked. So that power line couldn't be the original problem. What could possibly have been going on to not have power all of a sudden?
