So, enrichener does not function. This is a "push to choke" binnacle mount with the single engine key switch and lanyard right below.
I have verified continuity between red and blue when switch is depressed in both the on and start positions.
I have verified continuity between blue at switch and at engine.
I have verified 12VDC at switch.
I have verified 0 VDC at blue wire at enricher connection where the blue plugs into the female two wire plug where one is blue the other lt. green. 0VDC when key is depressed in on position.
That same connection gets ~2.6vdc when key is pressed in the start position. I believe this is some stray AC voltage as the green wire going to that connection comes from under the flywheel and splits several times and goes to the rectifier. either way its not enough voltage to make enrichener function.
All wireing has been ohmed. All connections are corrosion free. Freshwater low hours, clean and well maintained, all regular scheduled maintenance preformed since new.
Motor starts fine cold when I use the manual overide for the enricher.
I was going to throw a key switch at it even though it passes continuity checks but then I found out that it is ~$170.
Any ideas from some experts? Any tests I am missing? Any tests I described that are false?
I certainly appreciate any time someone spares to respond, I know we are all busy this time of year. I am just a little stumped on this one.
