I boat my bayliner in January and it had an old starter in it that had two wires connected to a toggle switch that needed to be swtiched in order for the starter to engage. I replaced that starter with a new one, Sierra part number 18-15919. Once installed the starter fired up without the aid of the toggle switch, but it sounded like it was hitting the flywheel.
I removed that starter and it turned out it was the wrong one. They should have shipped me Sierra part # 18-5911.
I've since installed the replacement starter, but not it wont start without the toggle swith again or connecting a wire directly to the battery.
Why does the wrong starter work correctly, key only and no toggle switch and the new starter which is the right one not?
