Hello everyone reading this.
I have a 1975 Evinrude #50573B
The motor runs (when crossing the solenoid)
I am having an issue with no crank when I turn the key. I tried the following steps before coming to ask for your advice.
trying a known working set of controls
When I turn the key, power should be flowing
From the battery
To the solenoid closing the gap allowing power to the starter.
Since there is no neutral safety switch there is no other part that should be stopping power from reaching the starter
The three parts the could be killing my electric start from cranking is
Ignition switch (I know is good!)
Wiring harness (maybe)
Solenoid (should be good??)
Is there anything crucial I am missing that would STOP the engine from cranking?

- Replacing the solenoid
- Checking for neutral safety switch (there is not one that I could see)
