can anybody help me. i have a 2004 evinrude 225 di it runs fine but when it gets below 50 degrees it wont start seems like the starter is draging i have a brand new interstate 1000 cranking amp battery. above 50 it cranks and runs fine any help would be great i dont want to spend 250 bucks on a new starter and that not be the problem thanks
It could be the start delay relay.
would that drag down the starter like it has a load on it like i said it only does it below 50 thanks championman
Sure anything is possible swap one from the PDP and try it.
thanks
I would check the voltage at the solenoid with a dvm, if it's below 9.6 the EMM won't fire the injectors...if I remember correctly. Also all grounds must be shiney clean...... Do you have the software, and a good manual?
Had that problem with my old 200 DI, took my starter to a local auto electric shop and had them rebuild it and that took care of the problem. You should be able to get it done for less than $100.00 if you have one close by. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/USA1.gif
thanks dan i live in smyrna what rebuild shop did you take it to if you dont mind me asking
thanks bassmeister i dont have the software and i have a manual on order where can i get the software i am a motorcycle atv and pwc tech so i am sure i will be able to handle the diag i guess i was looking for a cheap way out by asking if anyone has seen this problem before. im thinking its a starter problem thanks again for eveyones help.
Relay swap would be the quickest test. As far as the software try E-bay or craigs list. Worse case is getting it from BRP. Don't forget you need to make a diag cable too.
