Mercruiser 496 crank no start
I would like to start out that I'm a new member. I was at a lake this past weekend and I hit a sand bar going around 10 mph and only the lower drive scraped about 6 inches. The prop is fine and the lower is scraped up with some small damage to the edge. When it started to drag i immediately threw it in neutral and turned it off and then trimmed it up. But now it will not start. I bypassed the neutral safety switch and nothing. The motor is a mercruiser 496 with a bravo one x. Any help would be appreciated

When you turn key to crank, do you get power to yellow/red wire going to remote solenoid ? If so, power also at yellow/red on same solenoid to starter ?

Before I crank i have 12.5 on one side of the solenoid. when I crank I'm getting 9.5 volts on the other side. Its cranks fast but I checked for spark and nothing

So I have tested the kill switch, neutral safety switch, red circuit breaker, unplugged every connection and checked the harness, checked voltage on the batteries. I'm trying to see if I can get ahold of a scanner. But I'm out of ideas. I've hit big waves that jarred the boat harder than I hit this sandbar
