Fwebster - hi I sounds like you know a lot about the emergency switch and it’s issues. Can you help? I stranded out about 20 mikes from home. I took advice and changed all 4 batteries and replaced the 90 amp switch but still have issue that the stdb engine will not continue to run once the jumper switch is released. Is there a emergency jumper solenoid? Could this be the issue? Slave solenoid? Can’t find a picture of where this might even be. Thx for any help. Text 419-283-4638 if you can. Thx!
Just texted you on this. Had the same thing happen the other day as I left the dock. Port engine just died and wouldn't crank or beep or anything unless the emergency start button was held down. In my case it was a simple as the Port Ignition Breaker had tripped. After pushing it back on, the engine has run flawlessly as usual. In your case (from our texts) is doesn't seem so simple.
