I'll try to make this short. I have a 2005 Sea Ray 320, inboards.
I had a bad battery that was heating up when I tried to start my starboard engine. I removed all 4 batteries, and had them load tested. I had to replace one (the one that was heating up). I reinstalled the batteries. I tired to start the starboard engine and I get nothing. When I turn the batteries on, the key on, and the breaker on, I don't even get the buzzer to sound when i put the rocker to the on position. I noticed the smartcraft works off the starboard batteries when I turn the switch on, but now it doesn't turn on either. I checked voltage at the starter, and it's good. I put my test light on both sides of the 90 amp fuse at the starter, both sides lite. I check for current at the red set fuse on the engine, nothing on either side. I checked the 3 fuses, all good. If I try to use the emergency start, I noticed the smartcraft turns on, however, after about 3-5 seconds it shuts down because the port side breaker trips. Is there a fuse/breaker I'm missing? Someone said they may be a fuse behind the key (I would have to remove the panel). It appears the bad battery tripped something. No matter how many times I shut the batteries off, and turn them on, the starboard side appears always dead. I'm confused and lost on this one.
