powershift 2 1973 65hp johnson fuse question

[balamb0776]

Okay so yesterday i was trying to fix the problem im having with my control box. Well the dead mans switch in it was messed up and i moved it and when i turned the key it shorted out and now it doesn't do anything when i turn the key after i removed the dead mans switch and connected the wires. I was wondering where the fuses are so i can check and see if it burnt out? Also if not do you think it could have messed up the ignition? I was thinking it is probably a fuse or the ignition battery's are fully charged and brand new only about 3 weeks old.

Ahh thank you much i finally found it and sure enough it was blown bought a new one and now it works like a charm. One quick question. Im having trouble with the throttle control lever. It doesn't want to move back into reverse it stops in neutral and won't budge. I can manually engage the reverse but thats it. The lever doesn't actually want to move into reverse. Do you think something in the control box is keeping it from moving?
