Battery was checked and is fully charged. Hooked up the battery and the trim wont even budge let alone trying to turn over the engine. But when I was trying the trim (even tho it didnt work) I notice when I flicked the switch the fuel gauge needle went from half tank down to quarter tank(like a voltage drop or something?) I only have a MPH Gauge and a Gas Gauge, no Voltage or RPM Gauge unfortunately(just throwing that in there.)
So I connected some jumper cables and voltage read 13.32, Tried the trim and it worked GREAT!?? Tried starting the boat and it actually tried to turn over but acted like it only had 5v (very slow turn over) and didnt start whatsoever.
So basically it trys to start with jumper cables(13+ Volts) but wont even budge (the Trim or Engine) with fully charged(12.37v) Marine/RV Battery(has like 700+ CCA) I cant understand it at all...???
Could there be a bad ground? Maybe something else drawing to much power from the battey? Starter? Solenoid? Please Help
