All I get i a single click when I try to start the ski. I have fully charged the new battery and is reading 12V. I have tried jumping the solenoid and it sparks bigtime but nothing happens. I get electrical response to the gauges. I've replace the battery terminals. I removed the new plugs and tried to start it and am not getting any spark to the plugs. Anyway, what would be the next step for diagnosing the problem. I'm not sure what else to check or do?? Any help would be appreciated.
Yes. I have replaced the ground wire. It's weird because all the electrical seems to be ok. Could there be something engine wise. How do I turn the engine by hand to make sure it's not locked?
 
Well if you are not getting any spark to the plugs. Either replace them again or check the plug wires they might be bad. Try starting fluid too, it might help. Did you check your grounding as well?
