I have a 2002 suzuki Marauder. Was driving it everyday, but then went to start it one day and no power. We checked the battery, it has power. We checked all the fuses and they are good as well. Does anyone have any ideas what could be going on?

Thanks for your help.

Check the fuses again with a multimeter. Sometimes they may look good but actually have a small fracture in them and be bad.

1. Check to make sure the kill switch is in the "run" position.

2. Switch the petcock to the "reserve" position just to be sure there is fuel getting to the engine.

3. Check for loose or corroded ground connections.

4. The start switch may be corroded. Open it up. check the contacts and clean them. A good product is www.corrosionx.com You can use this stuff on any electrical connection. It will prevent corrosion and also restore corroded connections in most cases. Excellent stuff.
