Default 30 outlaw twin 600sci Port engine wont start? Help!

Whats up guys. So all the sudden my port engine wont fire. I got it to start when I started the starboard engine and gave it some revs but now it wont start at all. I checked the batteries and they are fine. Anyone have any ideas? Starter? Thanks

Make sure you shifter for that side is in neutral. It may need a little jiggling to get there. You have a neutral safety switch, and sometimes they can get a little out of whack, or go bad completely.

Forgot about this good point 33outlawsst, loose lanyards burned me a couple times at the ramp. Also sticks for the trans get "bumped" and engine wont start. Make sure your completely in neutral. Check the simple stuff, going for the more in depth stuff has always cost me time when it was an easy fix / brain fart.
