2013 Merc. 20hp 4 stroke.
Starts right up when I use the manual pull start. Will not turn over when attempting to use the electric start.
All electrical in boat is working fine, horn, lights, power tilt, live well pump.
Battery checked good.

Use a set of jumper cables to supply power directly to the starter.

If that works, then test the starter solenoid, see if it has power, and if it is getting signal to fire the solenoid to start the motor.
If thats good, then check back side of ignition switch for power, and continuity from switch to solenoid.
