No power to engine or power trim

[Gerald Dambrogio]

I have a 2017 Bennington 18” with a 25 horse Yamaha. I installed a new marine battery and went to raise the power trim, but there’s no power to the engine or trim. The instrument panel lights up, so there’s power there. Any inline fuses I may have missed ? Any ideas ?

Try the fuses under the engine cowling

I will check around and see if I can find them - thank you.

I think mine has two positive leads off battery. Any chance you missed hooking up one of them if you have the same?

Was thinking the same thing. I've done it before.

I do not see any fuses, under the cowling. I have an appointment with the marina to get the boat ready for summer, I’ll let them handle it. Thank you for the advice.

Both leads are on the positive, still nothing. I’ll call the marina tomorrow and let them take a look. Thank you for the advice.

Safety lanyard installed?

I found the fuse block under the cowling and surprise, surprise one of the fuses was blown, I’m back in business, everything is working fine, thank you !!

Glad you found it, and got it up and running.
