How to fix a Yamaha F115A when the starter will not operate?
- JJeanette HughesAug 22, 2025
If the starter on your Yamaha Outboard Motor won't operate, begin by checking the battery condition and ensuring it has the recommended capacity. Weak or low battery capacity can prevent the starter from working. Also, verify that the battery connections are tight and free from corrosion; tighten the battery cables and clean the battery terminals if necessary. Inspect the fuse for the electric start circuit and replace it with one of the correct amperage if it's blown, after checking for and repairing any electric overload. Make sure the engine stop switch lanyard is attached and the shift lever is in neutral. For faulty starter components, it is recommended to have your motor serviced by a Yamaha dealer.
