Did you use a volt meter and check to see if you were getting 12 volts on each side of the fuses? Check voltage until you find where the problem is located.

get a test light see if you have fire at the bilge (if u do motor may be bad) if you dont check the ground wire, then try again c if it works. ground wire needs to be grounded good.
