Model: 100esl72r
Here is what my testing has uncovered:
Battery: Reads 12.2V
Key Switch: Battery terminal reads 12.2V in off position, 10.5 when turned to on. Solenoid terminal reads 0V when in on position
Solenoid: Outer post to battery reads 12.1V. When the key is turned to on, both inner posts read 0V. When cranking I am only getting 8.5 volts to the starter.
I've already replaced the key switch.
Engine will crank normally, but I've already put one power pack (@ $300) in this guy and want to avoid doing that again. My best guess being a novice outboard mechanic would be solenoid or wires to solenoid. Any further testing suggestions or bits of knowledge would be appreciated. Thanks!
