2010 242 limited. No power

[Yamaste19]

I have just changed out starter and that’s not the issue still no power to motor.I’m getting power to starter but nothing after ! I have checked Ignition switch. Cut off switch on back platform . Neutral assembly in gear box and nothing . I’m so confused I checked and replaced all fuses. Please lead me in the right direction. Thanks in advance!

There is a funky main fuse somewhere in the battery compartment, @Julian would know, but I don;t know if that's a new model thing only. It's an unusual looking fuse box.

If your starter works, does that mean the engine cranks? Does the other engine start?

Are you in neutral? How about the lanyard/kill switch? Hope you find the problem soon.

When you say you checked the switches.....did you actually bypass these switches. My previous boat I owned 24years..... I had bypass terminals set up so in a no start I could bypass quickly the Neutral , Lanyard and in Alpha Merc drive the Momentary engine cut off to allow gears to mesh. ARE you getting power to Radio/Bilge pump blowers ect.............that at lease shows you Main Batt switch and Battery is working!

I with swatski do engines crank over or a no crank. Both engine no crank or just one.

Yes I bypassed all switches . And only port side cranks and starts no problems! Absolutely nothing when I turn key . No noise nothing when I crank starboard. Checked fuse panel , amd all fuses were good ?

Please let me know about another fuse box . Also port cranks no problem and turns over perfectly. Starbohas no power while cranking . Checked power to starter and I’m good but nothing after starter ?

Yes I have checked neutral and even switched to port side on Ignition switch and still no power checked safety cut off in back and nothing too. I’m so confused . I even changed out starter and bought new one put it in and nothing .. I want to cry !!

It’s sounds like the safety on the engine that won’t crank is engaged. It could be as simple as the safety trigger on the clean out port hatch is not being pushed down far enough to disengage. Did you adjust it so that more of the button is exposed /is being pushed down far enough to disengage? The throttle on the engine not cranking may not be in neutral either. That is it may look and or feel like it’s in neutral but the safety in the mechanism doesn’t recognize it because the cable/throttle isn’t where it should be to disengage the safety.

just last weekend my son and I had to pull the clean out plugs to clear vegetation from both pumps. He forgot to turn the latch on the swim deck hatch so the engine on that side of the swim deck would not crank. Turning that latch only lowered the clean out deck lid a fraction of an inch but it was enough to disengage the safety to allow the engine to start.

keep at it, I think and hope that Your persistence will pay off soon.

I know you’re saying you’re checking the safety switch in the back but you still haven’t indicated that you’ve checked the lanyard kill switch at the throttle. Double check that so that each engine is engaged there.

Sounds like you've already eliminated the fuses as you have power. Have you gone through the engine not starting diagnostic in the FAQ?

So if the starter has power....I assume the engine is turning over but not firing?
Do you have spark?

 

[anmut]

What's the voltage on your cranking battery?

Checked starter relay?

 

[Yamaste19]

12.4 while turning key

Not cranking at all port is firing up no problem

I have checked lanyard . Port still cranks but turns off gas so it won’t turn over starboard still no power at all while lanyard is out

Maybe I’m misinterpreting what your saying. You’re saying there’s no power when lanyard is out. That’s how that is suppose to work. Lanyard must be in though for it to get power. Just saying that in case there’s some confusion about that.
