Hi I'm new to this forum, having trouble starting my 97 Merc 115. I get zero power to the starter and not even tilt/trim is working either. I checked the obvious battery and charged it, checked volts and seems fine. The instrument lights, bilge and other accessory work fine and getting power. Turn key and don't hear click with key pushed in either.
I want to mention that it was cranking fine prior to this but after 5-10min of trying engine would not engage and start, perhaps I burned something out? . Prior to this was fine but boat was not started for 3weeks before this. Thx for help.
