Hi guys,,,
Well Having sorted out my running problems.... motor starts and runs great idles beautifully I have encountered a new problem. It wont go into neutral or reverse. It worked fine until i moved it over to a different boat it shifted well.... But now it wont go into neutral or reverse. It runs forward and at quite a speed. It wont start if the throtle lever is pushed forward I kow this is correct.
This is what I did
I moved the motor over to a different boat. MY speed problem was due to waterlogged foam so i got a different boat.
Well all went kind of well with the move over to the newer boat. Except.. I have now a new problem.
The remote control was stiff and sticking. i dont know why I just moved it over after disconnecting the plug from the motor and the throttle cable.
I looked in sde found a loose screw tightened it. Put it together and I couldnt mover the throttle to reverse then it jammed forward. The motor would go into reverse and neutral. However... I managed to fix the lever so that it moved forwards and backwards.... However now it wont change gear. I tested the switch in the control and it was ok.
I have tested the selinoids as per previous posts they work...
I am at a loss .. I guess theres a problem with the wiring.
I am waiting my repair manual for the motor.. Its gonna be a week.. yikes...
Do the wires when they come out of the lower unit into the engine remain the same color all the way to the switch in the control... ???
also .. I kow this sounds like a dumb question.. but wiring harness plug how does it push together, totally flush?, I cant push mine together any closer
but it doesnt seem to push all the way in..
