I do not appear to be getting ignition from my 1999 Mercury XR2 120 Sport Jet. Boat ran fine several times on a given day. shut it down on the hoist for a few hours and now won't start. Can anyone provide information on how to start trouble shooting the ignition system.
I checked the kill switch with a multi meter (open and closed circuits with/without clip in place) and it seems to be working fine.
I want to rule out the small items. Is there someway to check the ignition switch?
What are the next things I should check? I read that I shoudl check the rev limiter, but I do not know which wire to disconnect - or do I just unplug it?
I would appreciate any help provided to trouble shoot the possible iginition issues.
