I am embarrassed to say that I connected the battery terminals backwards to my 1992 Yamaha 40hp (C40R) 2cyl. Now, I am getting no juice to the engine, although boat accessories work fine.

I popped the cowling and found a fuse on a red wire that enters the motor as part of the wiring harness. However, that fuse is not blown. I don't see any other fuses inside the engine.

Could I have damaged something, or might there be another fuse to check?

Thanks,
John
