    Fourwinns 378 Aft couch control

    Seems it would be time to reach out to FW like Scott mentioned using your hull ID number to see if that feature was installed on your boat build sheet… also ask if there’s another way to set it up manually… They are usually pretty good at getting back to general questions regarding boat...

    In your photo I can see at least 4 screws and one through bolt /nut holding the white base down around the engine compartment/bilge area but there's probably a few more...If you can get the base out and undue the hatch lift air shocks, I think you'd probably be a little bit surprised at the...

    4.3 MPI Crank No Start / No Spark

    Sounds kind of correct though you'll want to also do a visual as well to the switch mounted on the shift plate of the engine to make sure it's center in the V 'and ohms test the switch to make sure it's working properly when physically moved say by hand and watching the meter...It will be item...
