Hello all. Newbie here. I have a 3 litre Alpha One Mercruiser that doesn't even click when I turn the key. I have checked the plugs, battery has 13 volts and there is nothing. At this point I am assuming the solenoid or starter. Any suggestions? Thanks

Hi Bt Doctur. Yes all gauges come on. I am just trying to eliminate items as I go.

You can check for 12v at the solenoid and starter but first thing I would do would be get into the stickys at the top of this section and look for the link don s put up he did everybody a huge favor and put a link where you can download the service manual for your motor that will help you greatly now and in the future

Also there should be a breaker (little red button) on your motor in the back on the left hand side( looking at the front) try seeing if that's tripped, it's worth a shot
