Subject: Outboard won't charge

Posts: 25

A couple years ago I attempted to move the cables from one battery to another while the outboard was running to charge a dead battery I ended up touching the opposite posts and fried a bunch of stuff. I've replaced the board and stator and a few other things the motor runs great but it still won't charge it's self. According to my mechanic he's tested all the parts ran them on other motors and the test out well and or work on other motors. He's never let me down in the past but he's currently quite confused as to why this thing won't work so I'm asking any of you who may have some ideas to chime in I would like to get rid of the solar chargers on the casting decks this season.
It's a 2003 Mercury 60 4 stroke efi.

DISCLAIMER:I don't know any technical terms that come with automotive/marine electronics so bear with me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Bob Harris
