I have a 2015 SN Team200 with the 409PCM. Went out last night and the boat won't start. Ignition button will cycle the fuel pump but when you press it to start there is nothing. The starter doesn't try to turn, click or anything. Battery is fine. I messed with the throttle and lanyard to make sure it is in neutral, etc and still no luck. Shut down the power and tried everything again but still nothing. Diagnostics are not throwing any codes. Will it show codes if I have a relay or fuse blown? I'm going to bypass the lanyard tonight and check connections on the starter. Suggestions welcome.

Yup I was going to ask if it was in Neutral but it seems like you checked that off the list. Also be sure that your battery terminals are attached. I have had issues in the past where they looked sturdy even when you give it a good wiggle but then later found a fracture in the battery terminal that is connected to the cable. It was causing intermittent issues. In regards to the lanyard be sure the plastic clip is pressing the button all the way in. Had one of these with a fracture in it which was causing a week application. Bought a new one and it started right up. Check your perko location to ensure all of your breakers are not popping out. Press all of them to make sure they are not disengaged. Check this as well at your other breaker panel. Also have you checked your voltage gauge on the instrument panel to make sure you have sufficient enough voltage to run the starter? If you can with a small hammer, or preferably a dead-blow, strike the starter body then try to start. IF it starts you may need to replace the starter..
Keep me posted if any of this works or doesn't work. Happy to help troubleshoot. -
So here's what I did to fix it...I tried starting it the next day before I messed with anything and it worked.
I went through all my connections anyways just to make sure and everything was fine. We spoke with someone from the factory and suspect that I might have an issue with the neutral position of the throttle, which was my initial thought. It's been fine the past few nights, but I'm sure it is going to pop up again. I'll just have to move the throttle around until I find neutral if it happens.Comment
