Dude. DUDE!!!!!! I am piecing together a Bayliner with my brother. We got to the ramp to finally get a good test out today and we lost power to ignition. I was beyond bummed. BUT YOU!!!!!! this video was spot on. Exactly what happened to me. MUCH APPRECIATED!
Great video. There is a second fuse holder (20 amp) near the RED thing at 3:00 minute mark. I am currently chasing the same problem, so every bit of info helps. Thanks.
Thank you Thank you so much!!!! Exact same thing with mine. Took it out after replacing the 15amp mini fuse. Ran it at all RPMs for an hour and runs awesome! I posted a video as well and there is more room to show exactly where the fuse is on the back of the motor. I wish you all the best and may Good Karma always be with you!!! 2008 Bayliner ignition died is the search
Lol 3years ago? I got the same problem with mine. I gotta check this out. It was a normal fuse ? Or a fusible link? Probably wont get an answer but thanks anyway
You can't know how important your videos are...first time boat owner, used 2002 Bayliner Capri. A few repairs done at the marina-really expensive-$1400. Took it out on lake, started fine, fished a bit, tried to start...nothing. The 'trim' control worked, bilge pump didn't work, had to tow it back. I am troubleshooting it now because husband wants to take it back to the marina but I think the problem has to be a fuse or a solenoid. It's going to be a really expensive boat if we have to take it in every time there's a problem. Thank you so much.
Thank you for this video exactly what was wrong with mine the 15amp fuse took a bit to find it its in a plastic case you unclip it saved me a costly trip to the shop
Man I hope this will be the fix to my solution. I’ve called myself checking everything & I honestly don’t have a clue what I’m checking, I just kinda poked in every fuse on the boat . I had no idea there was a fuse back there . Man I regret selling my Caravelle , I took on so much water during a parade on the lake that it pushed the kids from the bow of the boat to the back & I said that will never happen again . We we’re going so slow and it just took a nose dive . I really regret selling it . I had a ski Nautique (an older one) , then the Caravelle and now I have an older moomba Kanga . Hang on to that boat those are really good boats .
I'm having a really hard time finding this fuse on my boat... Any helpful tips for finding I tried to look where I thought this video was pointing to but didn't see it.
Did you find the reason why the fuse blow? I have the same issue ambit the fuse blows easily if it touch cables under the dash. But can’t figure out which.
Just had this issue, I now can trace every freakin wire in the boat. ended up being one of the connectors under the dash, unplugged/re-plugged, viola. Thanks this was helpful but no fuse on mine
Man I was hooking my battery back up an accidentally hooked the positive to the negative an now everything turns on but will not crank or turn over all I hear is a click. Please help I have a 2010 sea ray 195 sport
When this fuse was blown, did the engine crank or not crank? My 4.3L mercruiser won't crank. I can't find this fuse. Do you know the wire color? The key switch and battery are good, kill switch is set to run, slave solenoid (starter relay switch) is good, 50A breaker is new and pushed in. I turn the key and the starter relay switch just clicks. Seems to be sending power to the starter solenoid. The blower and bilge work, trim too.
@@businessonly6039 As I recall, I had to replace the starter. I did notice that the starter cranked slowly for a few months prior but I thought the battery was low on voltage. Didn't suspect a bad starter.
Having a almost sim problem but mine turns over and wont stay started. I didn't or don't see a lanyard safety switch that's hooked into the system though.
I have this same issue now on my Bayliner (Mercruiser 3.0) 175. I checked those fuses that you show. I puled them out of their carriers and Ohmd them out and all were good. 2 were inline fuses around the engine all good. I did not see inline fuses around the starter key under dash. No sound what so ever from solenoid. Battery volts 12.66v I even put on a new 50A main engine fuse that you showed the one with the yellow gate that pops down. I took off all the battery cables and sanded them still nothing. I tested the starter key and replaced it with a working one from my other boat, nothing. Ideas?
Same what was the issue as have 3.0 mercruiser prepping ready to launch to the sea, fitted charged battery then went to crank it to run it up on the hose it cranked over fine 3 times then stopped gauges weren’t working then thought ignition was dodgey had a fiddle under the dash it flickered attempted brief crank cut off and now nothing no gauges working power to trim fine that works just not ignition and gauges been and bought new ignition thinking it was that but still same issue can’t. Checked fuses and wiring under dash all fine I don’t see any fuses on this motor engine side that could be related anyone have a clue??
Hi I have a 84 Seaswirl that won't turn the starter, batteries good but no dash lights and no starter turning, no sound from starter. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you Steve.
I checked all the wires around the motor, unplugging them. One had a small 20amp fuse (like you would see in a car) not sure why it blew but it fixed my problem!
