Hi Guys.
Looking for a wiring diagram for my 86 Renken with OMC 4.3L inboard.
The gauge cluster is a mess and the ignnition switch needs replacing. I've got the boat running... I think the neutral switch was the problem. It was just stuck and dirty. Fixed that and now it wil run.
THe starter...
:confused: i have a 1986 renken w/ a 4.3 l omc w/ cobra outdrive. i am trying to get it running. the issue i am having is the throttle is in neutral, but when i go to start it the prop turns as if it is in drive. i can't figure it out. there seems to be an electrical problem, when i turn the key...
when i try and crank and turn key, nothing happens, all electronics work. when you put screwdriver across starter contacts it cranks, would this be a starter or solenoid issue?
