i am revamping a ol mark twain tri hull and it has a 115 johnson 4v on it. while revamping the motor with new parts like impeller, impeller housing ect. we used the controls while starting the motor like 20 times. we was on our mayden voyage got the boat in the water started it went to put it into reverse but would only rev up so im sure i have the linkage set wrong. it would go into forward just fine. but after puting it into forward gear i went back to neutral then tried to go back into revers but the control was locked in neutral and would not go past neutral into the reverse position. it would go into forward which worked fine. i pulled it back onto the trailer and went back home.
i got it back to my shop took the controller apart checked the cables they are all free and easy to move. checked the motor where the cables hook up its all moving free and easy. i do know and diagnosed that it is the controller its self but dont know whats wrong with it. i can tell there is some wear but not worn out.
does anyone have any ideas.
