There's a bunch that don't make sense to me, reason for not suggesting deeper.
Normally if the lone fuse is bad, you won't get anything related to the control box to work. The trim, the choke (primer) or the starter. That fuse basically works everything related to the harness.
Bunches of stuff just didn't sound right or at least I didn't comprehend it.

You know, I take that back.
My son in law couldn't get his engine to start and I found out it was that fuse.
He couldn't tell me he had shorted anything or not. Normally if the key switch is turned on and you short anything it will blow that fuse.

I spoke too soon. When i put the remote control back together it wont turn over, its dead. When i take it apart, it will turn over.

Now here's the real kicker: I now have ALL the wires (ignition, neutral safety switch jumped) outside the remote control hanging out the gunnel. Same thing, if the remote control is together the motor is dead. If the remote control is apart it will start.

How the hell is this possible?

I was planning to take it out tomorrow and run it for a little bit just for the helluvit. Its already cost me the last day of snapper season so its already on my sh*t list.

So now i believe it is the ignition switch. Every time i touch the yellow/red wires together it starts. When i put them pack on the ignition i get nothing. Tomorrow i will get another ignition switch from west marine unless, someone can recommend a better place to get one?
