    1974 merc 65hp no fire

    Greetings all! I have a 1974 merc 65hp 3 cyl model no 3815866. It is not getting power to the coil. I have no voltage coming out of the lower (green) terminal on the switch box. Does this mean I have a bad switch box? Engine spins over fine, but no spark from coil. Thanks for any input!
