I have a 2006 Yamaha, 4 stroke trolling motor that worked fine one day and would not start the next day. The battery is fully charged, the cable connections are clean. The trim and tilt work fine. The motor does not turn over and there is no electrical noise like a solenoid or relay clicking. The flywheel will turn freely by hand. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Welcome to iboats!:welcome:

My guess would be a problem with the neutral safety switch. But you might get better replies if you post your question in the appropriate outboard forum area.

Welcome to iboats, scoop. Moved your topic to the Yamaha section. This seems to be more a motor electrical problem than a boat generic electrical problem. Good luck.

key switch, neutral safety switch, or wiring is all I can think of
