Hello guys,
really appreciate these forums they have helped me a lot in the past. As of now, I am completely lost on what to try next. When i do a 1/4 turn of the key the ignition engages and goes through its system check ( Oil, heat, etc.). I hear the beep. Then when i do another 1/4 turn of the key the starter is suppose to engage and start the engine, but instead i get nothing. I get no noises at all. No clicking like a dead battery no clicking at the solenoid. Below is what I have done.
-New cranking battery fully charged 2 weeks old
-Engine cables connected to battery and secured. Terminals are clean. Cable hook ups are clean.
-Shifter handle is in neutral. Triple checked.
-Kill switch is hooked up appropriately.
-Ignition wiring is good at dash. No loose/corroded connections.
-Ignition wiring to Power control assembly is good.
-Power control assembly ignition relays are good. Replaced them to make sure.
-Ignition fuses in power control assembly are good. Replaced them to make sure.
-Wiring to solenoid is good.
-Jumped solenoid to test starter. Starter is good.
-Replaced Solenoid.
-Wiring from Solenoid to Starter is good.
-Bypassed the shifter handle neutral safety feature to ensure the shifter handle was shifting into neutral properly.
Will be getting multimeter to test all the voltages and current flow through each section of the starting process. Have no clue what else to do.
thank you in advance for the help.
UPDATE
I checked the “S” terminal on the solenoid with a voltage meter. I got no reading. So I followed that “S” terminal wire and ran into a relay that was hidden underneath the solenoid and a giant bundle of wires.
I took the relay that I found out and switched it with a power trim relay that I know was good. My motor cranked. Thinking I fixed the issue I put everything back together. Came outside and tried cranking it a half hour later and it didn't work again.
Went back to that relay for the "S" terminal on the solenoid and unplugged it. Jumped it with a wire, everytime I jump the relay port with a wire it cranks over great. I put the relay in and it doesn't work. I've tried 6 different relays that I know are good.
UPDATE 2
I plugged in the delay relay. I unplugged the EMM module and plugged it back in.
My motor cranked. My fuel Pump did not turn on. I hooked my motor up to muffs and Tried starting it to confirm the fuel pump was not working. So I went to the fuel Pump relay, unplugged it, tapped it on boat deck and plugged it back in. Fuel pump now turns on and the starter engages. As of now i am thinking the unplugging of the EMM fixed the ignition issue and the tapping on the fuel pump relay fixed the fuel pump issue.
As of now all is fixed. Thanks for all the help! I doubt it will continue to work but I will be replacing the fuel pump relay.
