What position does the switch need to be on a 1989 force 50. I chasing down a no spark problem.. it was running went to back it off the trailer and it died. Went to start back up and it wouldn’t.. did a spark test and no spark.. so what’s your thoughts...

Unhook the wires from the back of the switch, then try.
Still no spark? then use a jumper wire in the ends of the 2 wires, then try again.
The 2 tests will tell if the switch is bad.
Some kill switches will ground the system when activated(first test)
Others cause a ground (test 2) when installed.

outboardignitiondotcom and CDI Ignition has test procedures for your motor.

Check the flywheel key, sometimes it shear's for no reason????
