2015 mercury 90 hp wont start

[jeff41290]

i have a 2015 mercury 90 hp motor an today i went fishing an it fired up first thing this morning and fired up a second time to move locations. Went to fire it up a third time an nothing. Boat has power to everything. I can hear the fuel pump kick on but the motor will not make any noise to turn over or start. Starter doesnt even make a click. Any suggestions before i take it in to have it fixed?

Hi, welcome to iboats!

Where you using any other electrical devises before it wouldn't start? You may want to start out by checking all the fuses found next to the engine under the engine cowling.

The Mercury owners manual you should of received with the engine purchase should help guide you to the location of the fuses.

all fuses looked good when i checked them. was the first thing i looked at.

Was it in neutral, and was the lanyard in place? Move the lever back and forth to ensure the neutral safety switch is in the correct position, then pull the lanyard and put it back in place. Check battery connections at both ends.

Engine fuses are not in the "boat" fuse block -- they are under the engine cowl.

thanks for the help. it ended up being a bad connection on the neutral safety switch in the throttle. fixed it myself
