Problem

Hey Folks, having a little problem with the Hewes. The boat wouldn't crank this morning so I put the charger on it until lunch, I got home and nothing. I trailered it over to the Eastpoint Napa to get a new battery, figured that would solve the problem....Nope. With a new battery, all power works electronics, lights, tabs, powerpole, and so on. The tilt and trim will not work and the motor will not crank. Any of you guys have any ideas? Wefings is closed so couldn't get it checked out.
Thanks, Carson

BAD FUSE, KILL SWITCH, CORROSION OR BAD GROUND , START SIMPLE AND USE A TEST LIGHT . OR AMP METER. PROBABLY SOMETHING SIMPLE. GOOD LUCK.

Thanks Guys, I went down and started checking everything. I found a wire that was nearly worn all the way through right at the connecter, as soon as I grabbed it the wire broke. Gonna get a new connecter thing tomorrow mornin.
