    Hello... My boat was not turning off with the key.  We were having to disconnect the fuel to have it run out.  I was told I needed to replace the ignition switch.  I swapped out my ignition switch.  That didn't work.  I saw the second switch that was a kill switch.  I cut that switch out and tried to hard wire.  After that, the boat never started again.  I tried to re-wire that switch back in.  And still nothing... Man am I lost.. HELP

    I need to replace the water pump on my 1994 Suzuki 25 hp.  I'm wondering how to get to the water pump?  I took out the 6 bolts at the lower end of the shaft.  What else do I do to get the lower end off?

    Please check wire attached to the top terminal on the starter relay. If there is no current in the wire then there must be problem in battery or terminals. This could be the result of bad wire also. You should remove the small wire on the solenoid and check the wire for battery voltage. The starter must not be working properly if there is no voltage. Replace the wire if there is fluctuation in the current or no current. Another reason could be the fuse in the fuse box. You should check the relay. If there is no current in the fuse and the relay then problem might be in fuse box. If there is power, have the helper hold the key in the start position once again and check for power at another terminal from the ignition key. If there is power, the relay is bad. If there is no power, the starter circuit is out of order.

    Another reason could be the neutral safety switch. The power issue could be found there. You can use the voltmeter to check for power with the key in start. If there is no current going in, then the security system or ignition switch needs to fix. Another problem could be wires leading to ignition switch. The ignition switch is working improperly if there is no current.
