No I didn't swap the ecu. Im at the point I might take it to the dealership now

I did that with no luck. After I posted I tried that aswell.

Hey guys I know it's been awhile but life with two boys lol. So I got my other apex in the garage and took the starter solenoid off and put the one I had on my 08 on and it fired right away. So its not the solenoid. So when I crank the key to start there's something that's not letting my 08 to...

The used one I got was for a venture I believe. The power terminal was on the other side. There not interchangeable? Some of the posts I've read in here say that you can. I'm newer to the Yamaha 4 strokes.

I'm going to buy a new tomorrow and put it in and see what happens.

I jumped the starter and the sled runs fine. No hesitation nothing.

I missed the ground block with all the black wires. I'm going to check that tonight.

There's one from the solenoid to the starter then there's a seperate ground from the battery to the bolt that mounts the starter to the side of the engine. That's how it is on mine anyways.

I didn't let it run to long wasn't sure if it was a good idea to. For the ground it's grounded to the one starter bolt from the battery. Should I let it run for bit? I'll jump the solenoid tomorrow.

It was a vector I believe and I know you have to switch the terminals. Something I just thought of should there be power going to the starter from the back wire that runs from the relay?

So I found that plug and everything looked good on it I plugged it in tight and still nothing. I've been reading about fouled plugs being a problem but it would still turn over if they were fouled correct?

It was a used OEM solenoid. The solenoid on the machine looks like it's in mint condition. No corrosion nothing not even dust lol. I'll check that plug when I get home tonight.

6-8" from the key? I live in london

So right at the switch where the key is correct. I have power at the ignition at the relay. I checked with my light tester. I'll go give it a shot right now.

I hope some one can help lol. I started my apex about a month ago had no problem. Went to start it a week ago and nothing happens. The dash comes on fuel pump clicks turn the key to start and nothing happens. I've been reading a bunch of threads in here. I changed the starter relay nothing...
