Hi I have an 98 sxi pro that won't crank. If I hit the start button all that happens is the relay clicks? What does this mean? Any help is appreciated

this could be a multitude of things. First make sure the battery is charge with enough juice to actually crank the engine. Then verify that the crank shaft spins, perhaps it is stuck, pull a spark plug or both and insp for water and try to rotate dshaft by hand. Check the drive pump and make sure there is nothing jammed. chack your battery cables condition and if all is tight. also not neccesarily in order, but remove and check the starter itself- usually you have to start by asking yourself what and why this all happened since the last time you rode it. -good luck

It worked fine all day until I put it on the trailer. I hit the start button, nothing. The bilge still turns on but it doesn't even try to crank?

Battery voltage? Voltage while trying to crank? Ground wire hot? The bilge requires just a little less current than the starter so not a good indication of battery condition.
