2014 Yamaha Outboard 150hp 4 Stroke - Won't turn over? (Fixed)

[tcesar]

Aloha,

Eng: 2014 Yamaha Outboard 150hp 4 Stroke (x150xa)

Problem: When I turn the key, I get nothing...silence.

Here is what I've tested:
- Fuel - Good/primed
- 12v to the engine - Good
- Cutoff lanyard - Installed
- Digital Gauge - Comes up
- Tilt/Trim - Works
- Checked fuses - Good
- Shifter is in neutral/middle
- Drained small engine fuel filter
- Charged batteries, confirmed connections.

Any ideas of what I can look for? I'm assuming it's electrical, but don't have a wiring diagram. Hoping someone has some ideas, before I take it into the shop. Ugh!

I'm new to the forum, and enjoy the posts and replies. Super helpful. Thanks!

Thanks in advance,

Mahalo,

TC

Remove/ check/ clean/ grease/ tighten all those connections....could also be corrosion inside battery cables....

Thanks Robert, I'll do just that. Also, based on my reading in others posts, I'm going to take close look ar the Neutral Safety Cutoff Switches.

Thanks!

Fixed - Stupid me! . Earlier in the week when I pulled the 407 Controller (to clean and grease), I removed the shift lever and did not install/align-it properly back to the neutral stop position. Thus when I put in neutral (what I thought was neutral anyway) I in-fact was throttled forward... Ugh! Removed lever (two bolts) repositioned back to neutral stop position. Done!

Thanks everyone!
