grounded electric choke, now won’t start.

I was doing some maintainance on my 2001 snorkel uno41 manlift. I accidentally grounded out a stud on the back of the electric choke assembly. The machine quit right away and won't start up again. I checked the visible circuit breakers. They are all ok. I tried pouring a bit of fuel in the carb, that didn't help either. Any ideas?

    Downloaded a very helpful troubleshooting manual and wiring diagrams from snorkellifts. Com and traced it to a bad Murphy switch. Bypassed it and it starts up fine now. Should anyone come across a similar problem.
