    neutral safety switch operation

    Re: neutral safety switch operation I don't believe there was an '80 90hp, but at any rate, that remote is probably very similar to my '79. Your problem could also be a key switch that is starting to fail, and not making contact between the B and S terminals on the switch. A continuity check at...

    1970 Johnson ignition wiring problem

    Re: 1970 Johnson ignition wiring problem Here's a diagram for a '70 40hp. If you don't have an ammeter, run the red wire to the B terminal on the switch. Terminal ID's difficult to read in diagram. Starting at the bottom with BAT (B) then clockwise: M,S,A,M.

    control box questions

    Re: control box questions You're missing 2 wires on that plug that has the purple wire coming out. That's a female plug, and you can remove it from the remote. If you want your tach and other accessories to work, you'll have to add the grey and black wires to that plug. purple = switched 12v...

    1971 Evinrude 50hp Lark Electric Shift Gearbox Problem.

    Re: 1971 Evinrude 50hp Lark Electric Shift Gearbox Problem. As others have said, sounds like your green wire is shorting out somewhere. When you swapped the green and blue wires, your problem went from no neutral, to no reverse. Have to find the short in the green wire. Try the amp draw test...

    1979 Johnson 85hp - carbs

    Model 85TL79 - uncertain history Background: Picked up a 1979 15' Kingfisher bass boat, motor and trailer for $250. At that price, I didn't expect much out of the motor, so I was surprised to find that the motor had good compression numbers (125,133,125,125) and good spark. I had planned to put...

    1994 Evinrude trim and starting problems

    Re: 1994 Evinrude trim and starting problems You can rule out a bad starter motor by using jumper cables to connect 12v directly to starter (key off). If starter motor is good, you can test the solenoid as described in the diagram below. You can rule out a bad trim motor by connecting 12v...

    1978 85 hp Johnson V4 Starter Stuck engaged??

    Re: 1978 85 hp Johnson V4 Starter Stuck engaged?? Glad to hear you got the starter loose. There is a fuse between the solenoid and your harness plug (large red plug). If you can't find it, it may be wrapped inside the harness. Rather than spend too much time looking for it, I would just pull...
