starter click

[inchspinner]

Went fishing last night and launched the boat and could not get it to crank, all i got was a click about 25 times....Then it fired and not clicked.....Moved spots and the same thing CLICK...took the cowl off and jumped it with a screw driver, fired right up...I think its the started solenoid and if so where is a local place around LAKE CHARLES that would have them...Everything is clean and tightly fastened...but I get a CLICK...anyone ever had this and what was your results...Would WEST MARINE have these solenoids...tia...chris.

Before you start taking the solenoid off...... draw you a good picture of where each wire connects.

Oh..... and disconnect the battery.
