I have no indications on any gauges and get nothing when I try the starter.

Battery is fully charged. I have 13 volts to the ignition switch.

Which pins should show continuity on the ignition swith?
In the on position?
in the start position?

Kill switch is good, open now, closes when you activate the kill.

Thanks,

Bill

I had checked the fuses on the motor, I found two. Is there another one hiding back there somewhere?

Thanks

I do. I can jumper the solenoid and start the motor.

Check the brown wire at the starter solinoid for 12 volts when attempting to start. If not there go to the ignition switch. The red wire should be hot all of the time and the blue and yellow should go hot with the switch turned on. the brown wire goes hot to key the starter solinoid. Corrosion in the switch is often the cause of this problem.
