I have a Bentley pontoon and it worked fine 2 weeks ago when i took it out of the water on my trailer. Today, I went to test start it in my backyard, and no beep, no click, no gauge activity, nothing.
The accessories work(horn, lights, radio) and I put a meter to the battery, it is 13.8 volts. I keep the battery on a trickle charger as well. I checked the safety lanyard, it is fine. Looking under the helm is a mess of wires, and i saw 3 fuse holders, all had good fuses. There might be more, but I can't seem to find them.
I was thinking it might be a switch problem, i reached up inside the helm, nothing felt loose. So last time everything was fine, loaded on the trailer for the day, and here we are. Now it sat uncovered for the two weeks (unusual, normally i cover it) and it got rained on with the key in the ignition (like i have before to no ill effect) in the off position.
The odd thing is back on the engine, the power tilt up and down rocker buttons does nothing, no noise or anything. This kind of makes me think it is not the key/switch now.
Does anybody have any ideas? I am at a total loss and this is very frustrating as I had the family ready to go out tonight.
Thanks,
Chris
