electical help

[brylon644]

I have a blaster that won't do anything when the battery is connected and button is pressed. I checked the fuse, s/s switch, all grounds and connections inside the ebox and still nothing. If I jump the solenoid it will crank over just fine. Going to swap the solenoid tomoorow and see if that does it. What else could be causing this to happen?

Try jumping at the switch connection (red & brown wire I believe) at the plug under the hood to eliminate if it's the actual switch/button. Leave the white & black wires connected as that will still let you be able to kill it.

Let me also ad that it has the ocd tidy bilge kit in it. It has no power to the bilge either

Did you hook up the wires backwards? Just had a customer do this, the wire that goes to the battery he hooked to the starter and the wire that goes to the starter he hooked to the battery, nothing would happen unless you opened the ebox and jumped the solenoid

Actually I have been in contact with him. Same guy I bought the ebox from

Do you have the ebox open?

Problem solved! "Someone" but the cable on backwards
