Trying to start my Scarab 2016 195 have no electrical anywhere. No clicking noise of relays and it's like the kill switch is out but it is not. I had the boat worked on last week. They changed the adjust switch above the Killswitch. Wondering if this could be the problem. Any thoughts from anyone? Battery charge good. All fuses are good
 
Several years back just getting the boat ready for the summer. Put the charged up battery back in and fired up the engines but only one would start. Got the charger back out put it on for an hour, again only the one engine fired up, no anything on the other engine, just dead. Was taking it to the shop and googled something about engine won’t turn over, dead engine. Said to confirm the battery hook ups. Pulled off the road and checked. Yep, one of the two positive cables somehow slipped back from the one and was lodged back under the seat in a dark corner. Hooked it up and varoom! Now I have both positive cables taped together. I have also had a wire harness connection come apart behind the dash board, this wasn’t really noticeable but when I squeezed them all tight, one clicked, the ears grabbed the connection tight and my dashboard lit up like it was supposed to. Just a couple of possibilities. Good luck!
 
Thank you, sometimes the most obvious is the solution.
