Hi all found out today why my boat would not start last weekend took it over to a friend of a friend who is a atuo sparky he went all over the boat and found the manual override circut breaker (the one with the big red button) for a mercruiser is faulty going one min not the next.
my question is does anyone know where i might get one from ????

Also check the terminals at
Also check the terminals at the back of the circut breaker.If these are corroded or loose they build up heat.Most of the circut breakers operate on a bimetalic strip inside which once heat builds up they will trip the breaker

Thanks for the info mate but yeah the sparky did all of that and yeah told me it is cactus nacktus . seems to think it dates back to the 1980s when the boat was built ha ha
