Blew a fuse upon cranking. I unhooked the VRO pump, removed the oil tank and lines, and hooked up the battery. The accessories worked fine, tried to start it for a quick second, and a little fizzle/pop and nothing. ALL power is gone, no accessories or anything. Don't have any idea where they are as this is my first outboard. If anyone can help and or show an illustration, that would be awesome. Trying to get it water ready for the season today.

Thanks, Rick

One fuse on the motor ... see owner's manual. Other fuses are not directly related to the motor and may be anywhere. You need to find the fault that caused the fuse to blow or it certainly will happen again.

The single fuse is a 20 amp AGA in holder connected by wire to the incoming large post on the starter solenoid.

Usually, the fuse blows if someone has wired accessories to the ignition system, which is not wired to handle them.
