Not Turning Over (2018 CS22)
Battery good and in neutral. Trim down. Battery disconnect switch on. Hear click when switch turned on. Insert key and turn to right. Radio light comes on, bilge pump etc work. But no engine clicking or turnover. Ideas?

Get your battery tested. How do you know it's good?

Hey uflp...so glad you found us my friend.
When I have had that situation it was because the battery cable on the battery terminal had worked loose slightly. Looked good visually but not tight enough for the amount of current to pass through to crank these engines. Give that a look over and tighten with a half inch wrench.
Any pics of your CS?
And welcome aboard mate!

OK, but I'd check the gear shift and kill switch before I got out of my seat.

Have you or someone attempted to rotate the engine manually? If you have the means for the tools for the crank socket I’d give it a shot.
That will put some things to rest.

Hopefully a stuck bendix but ya never know. At least I’d sleep better knowing .

So my buddy!!
I’ve been great, sorry I don’t drop by often but
change of directions, and schedules this year haven’t allowed much free time.
No worries though as I have my eye on a few threads I’d like to hijack.
Meantime fingers crossed on this one !
Talk soon brother!
