ISL 400 won't start

When I turn the key to start the ISL, no gauges move, no dash lights, no buzzers, nothing. Obviously the engine won't even turn over. I can hear a slight 'click' when I turn the key off and on (in the front run bay), but I'm not sure exactly where it's coming from. Possibly a relay, but I'm by myself so difficult to turn key off and on and try to trace where the clicking is.

Coach on 50amp shore cord. Batteries test fully charged. I can hear trambotti connect when I push the boost switch, but still nothing.

Any thoughts?

Do you have a rear start button? Is that tripped or will it start from there?

That was it. I came back to computer to post my findings and you beat me to it. Thanks for taking the time. I should have known better.

I cleaned my engine compartment about a week ago to try to keep up with Harry "Happycarz". I'm a long ways from his pristine engine compartment. I must have bumped the switch.

Bill you killing me, glad you found it. I suppose if I had the same switch in the back it would get hit all the time.
Hey Bill spray poly sealer On engine components. It helps! Of course only on good surfaces. So that’s Limited in my engine compartment! But hey my new air cleaner and 90’ elbow looks sweet.

Is that one like Harry's? It's a clean install for sure.

That reminds me, I have to start thinking about my overflow tank. I still have the plastic one. I know Source makes them. Any place else I should check?

I would check with Zmotorsports if he is willing. I would help Bill, I have design which has evolved from Harry’s original, but in the middle of building hone in WA so I wouldn’t have time right now. I’m not volunteering Mike but PM and ask if he is willing or has time. You can see from his post it takes time I don’t know his cost either. Good luck buddy.

Ask Mike he has many required parts or makes them. I have to order most of my parts through McMaster-Karr. I do have some 6061 aluminum.
Wish I wasn’t in transition, love to work in shop.
