My daughter played with some buttons on my 2008 Ranger Reata 1850 and drained the battery. I had Fleet Farm test the battery they said it was shot so replaced it with a new one, prior to removing the old one I took pictures to make sure I had it correct and that the new one was correctly installed. All electronics in the boat work except for the motor. Checked the breaker in the back and it is normal. The one up by the troll motor is fine as well. Are there any other breakers or what am I missing here? Suggestions/comments? not the kill switch...

Safety switch or lanyard may have been removed or de-activated, not sure if your boat has one. It should be located around the key area or shift arm.

What Motor? I'll move this to the appropriate section with that. May get a more focused response there. Welcome aboard!

Is the Thottle/Shift lever in NEUTRAL? If so, jiggle it while trying to start the engine.
