mercruier, 2007, mpi. in a chapparelle boat.
the switches for the batteries have directions
1) turn on engine battery switch
2) turn on house battery switch
3) turn off emergency parrallel switch
for some reason if i have the switches set up according to those steps the engine won't turn over. I have power at the key switch and through the key switch. Now if i turn on the emergency parrallel switch i can turn over the engine and everything works correctly. i was just wondering how that goes about happening. shouldn't the engine be able to run with just the engine switch on?
