Had that same sort of intermittent problem with my Universal M4-30 a couple of years back...solved with no recurrences after I changed out the starter push button and redid the fuse connections (2@30 amp) and cleaned all the wire connections at the panel...the fuses I believe most likely caused the problem but I did all the work at the same time when I had the panel removed so I can't say that with certainty, but on removing the little glass 30 amp fuses the metal ends fell right off the glass, so I think the fuse itself had deteriorated and most likely caused my problems...looked OK to the eye until I removed it...no tellin how old that fuse was, one was in a fuse holder with a badly corroded spring and the other was just soldered to the connecting wires either end, that fell apart when I touched it as one metal fuse end separated from the glass tube

I press it a second time and 99% of the time the engine fires right up. Have any listers experienced the same - and help me identify the problem so I can fix it before I get to the stage where I can't start the engine at all. -- Jonathan Indigo C&C 35III SOUTHPORT CT > On Sep 17, 2014, at 7:29, Nauset Beach via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > > Nate > > Had the same issue last week on my Yanmar 3GM30F with a B Type engine panel. > Was getting near complete voltage drop across the 2 terminals of the key > switch when the key was turned on and nothing from the button.
