Hey everyone, I've been searching and using the advice on different threads for the past 2 weeks, but haven't had any luck in getting it started. Here's the deal: The last time the engine ran was in November, before the winter started. The engine started up fine back then with the occasional "turn the key and no crank" Im finally getting it ready for the fall crabbing and salmon, but as I tried to turn it on at home, the engine wont crank. All I get is the solenoid clicking as I turn the key. So I decided to charge the battery, which tested out fine. Still no crank, just clicking. I put in my trucks new optimum battery and still no change. During my troubleshooting, the ignition switch broke so I had the local Marine center order me a new switch. When I removed the old switch I noticed it was cracked and scorched...maybe water got into it? Well, I put in the new switch and still only get he clicking. Next, I decided to clean ALL the connectors that lead from battery, solenoid, and starter. Still no change. Next step I replaced the solenoid, but still no change. The last step was taking the starter out, opening it up and cleaning it out. I still only get the clicking sound. I think my next step will be to replace the positive and negative battery cable since they look a bit old. What else should I be looking at? Sorry for the long story, my father and I really want to take it out in this fine weather. Thanks for all the help!
