Why is my outboard battery not turning on?

Forgetting to turn on the boat’s electrical circuit via the battery switch is another common error that takes a second to fix. If that doesn’t solve the problem, check that the battery switch is on, and that the battery cables are free of corrosion and securely attached to the battery.

What does it mean when your Suzuki SX4 won’t start?

The first and most common is when it won’t turn over. This just means that the engine doesn’t move when you turn the key. The second way that your SX4 won’t start is when the engine turns when you engage the starter, but it won’t fire and run on its own.

Where do you find the battery switch on a boat?

What should the voltage be on an ATV battery to start it?

The battery should read 12,6 – 12,8V. Use a multimeter or a voltmeter to check the voltage. If the voltage drops too low, the battery won’t have enough charge to start the bike. Charge the battery or replace it if it’s dead.

What kind of battery does a Suzuki Katana have?

I am a first time owner and have a 2005 Suzuki GSX600F Katana with 12,000 miles. It has been good to me besides recently. I started it up a few days ago, went to put it in first gear from neutral and it shut off. It would not start up there after. The battery is fine, tested and it is at peak power.

Why does my bike not start when I Turn on the ignition?

If okay, check that the switch is getting power from the ignition switch when the ignition switch is turned on. If not, your ignition switch may be faulty at the lead that supplies power to the starter switch and is probably the culprit because we know the ignition circuit works – it’s the starter circuit in question.

Why does my iboat battery light up when I shut it off?

I never shut it off though. The battery cable connections and all connections are completely tight. The connector from the ignition switch to the solenoid (the one with like 8-10 pins) does not light up when I check for power. However, the same wires that start in the ignition switch light up when I check.

Do you have a Kill Switch on your bike?

Thanks. Well its a safe bet you do have a kill switch, you can check to see if you did knock it to the off position. And, if you did while it was running, you may have also flooded the engine. Its a newer bike so that probably wouldn’t affect the spark plugs much.
