Yep the one with the key and idiot lights.

What "control panel" are you referring to? Ignition, oil/fuel gauges etc?

It's not for the starter...It is for power to the control panel.
It just happens to be behind the starter on top of the engine...
Which in my opinion is a really stupid place to hide it, and took
me forever to find.

That fuse holder is especially syrange- starters are the

Had this happen to me. Mine has an obscure fuse right side
facing aft, near the starter. My fuse holder had
cracked and was intermittently permitting things to work
perfectly or not at all. Check that, and the ground
as others have mentioned.

Last night, out of the blue, my engine would not turn over
after a race. Nothing at all when I push the start button.
I ran the engine before the race and all was fine and have
had no issues at all this year. Fortunately, I was able to
sail the short distance to the mooring without a problem. I
will be going out to the boat later to try to fix the
problem and wanted to see if anyone had thoughts on the
problem from personal experience.
Plenty of power- batteries fully charged. I tried bridging
the two batteries just to be sure and still nothing happens.
Key switch on I can hear the fuel pump ticking over.
I measured 12V across the start button poles, which goes to
zero when pressed and my recollection is that is normal the
way it is wired with the glow plug button. I have not yet
measured at the starter, as that is a real PITA to get to.
Everything had been working fine up until that incident.
The only thing that happened during the race, (and I don’t
think relevant) is that the genoa sheet got wrapped around
the engine stop pull knob at one point. I checked and the
cable and stop look fine, and the engine should still turn
over even if it were pulled, is my understanding. It just
should not start.
So I am thinking either engine ground wire or starter and
plan to clean both and try again. Any thoughts welcome.
Thanks- Dave
