Hi Guys,
Just pulled this out of the shop after winter storage. The unit was winterized last fall, and ran well.
Now the electric start does not work....the battery is fully charged(13.2v) but when the button is pressed there's absolutely nothing.
Checked the fuse and its good. Anyone any troubleshooting ideas?
Thanks.

Check the wires on the switch. If you have a VOM trace the voltage from the battery, through the switch , to the starter. If you post back, include the model and serial numbers for the unit.

check battery voltage when you are trying to crank and see if it changes. In not look for mouse chewed wires.

Thanks Rivets and sgkent....problem resolved! Connector had come off the starter button!
Problem I now have is having taken out the battery to give it a good boost, the plastic battery tray does not want to fit back in....ttried for about an hour but simply will not slide in. Any ideas about this issue?
Thanks.
