Went to trim the Port sided engine after shutting it down and it failed went to turn the key back on and No gauges or buzzer came on. Trim Tilt on other engine is fine. Checked a bunch of fuses and can't find anything. Twin 97 200 yamahas Dual binnacle 704 throttle control. Any advice Batteries are good and I have power back at the main terminals on the engine.

I put a meter on the 20 and 30 at the engine. They had continuity checked every fuse in the console and they seemed good as well. Also swithed keyswitch plug from port side to starboard side and was able to get the gauges to light up didn't do anything for the trim/tilt but wanted to see if the problem moved and it did so I guess I eliminated the ignition right? Any other thoughts

Found it. Checked that 30 Amp and 20 amp fuse at the engine and the 30 broke off inside. Replaced it and all is well. It seems like every fused I touched just crumpled in my hand leaving the metal in the end and the glass in my hand. Thanks Rodbolt. Keep posting.
