new engine turns-does not start

[oddysea1]

I have a 2022 350 hp fresh water cooled mercruiser-went out motor ran great-anchored for a bit. Question - i was installing a cigarette lighter on a fuse block and accidentally crossed the wire. After that i wanted to head back, went to start the engine, it turns and that's it. Is there any electrical component that could have been effected . regards Andy

Blown fuses? tripped breakers?

Agree

Let's hope that's all it is. Look on top the motor for fuses. With it turning over there is power to key.

When key is turned ON do your hear a beep?

The fuel rail does turn on when key goes to the on position as well as the beep.

Lets hope it's the main power relay fuse. Look for rectangular thin item with a cap. Will be either a single fuse or could have 3

It was a corroded distributor cap with only 60 hours on it-Tech said they are having issues with the one that came original to engine-
