Just Died ?
 
OK, so i was out taking my sisters kids for a ride

1993 Powerquest 290 T -454 Carbureted 935 Hours

and Port engine just died and would not even turn over ?

So i looked at the Teather and it was there... pulled it off and back on.. NOTHING..

checked the oil and it is as perfect as that day i put it in.

moved Shiftier back and forth.... Nothing

Ok, Any idea of routes that i can take ?

Check power to the dash, could be a bad cannon plug connection, or popped the main power breaker

Where is the main power breaker fuse ?

Unlimited jd 06-15-2020 06:44 AM

On the engine harness, typically near the starter slave solenoid. Red button about 3/8” diameter

In addition....$10 test light and $20 multimeter can be your best friend in times like this.

Can you see/access back if your ignition switches.

Sounds like it lost power to ignition. Check if you have power at the coil with the ignition on, if not figure out why. Try jumping the neutral safety switch as well (yellow/red wire going to throttle/shifter).
