1987 Starcraft 191 select trim switch

[Kewen300]

Need help locating a new replacement trim switch for my Starcraft. The motor is a 4.3 alpha 1 gen 1. The trim lever is in the throttle handle. Everytime I type anything in to a search bar it always comes out with stuff for outdrive or side mounts.

No idea. It's the stock one that came with the boat. The sticker badge was missing when I got it.

Here is the photo of my throttle control. I believe it is the stock one that came with the boat. Had to reassemble a little for the pic.

Looks like part of your post is missing?

I think its this one. At any rate the switches should be the same but would not swear to it

The only issuse I see with this switch is that the wires are coming out the side. The switch I took off the wires come out the back. The switch itself fit into a rubber cover and sat horizontally in the throttle handle. Below is a pic of the actual switch (it lost a leg upon removal it's a 3 leg switch)

Suggest spending some time in the link in post 7
Your posted in The Merc section, so the link should have 1986 to 1993 controls. So unless its not a Merc control it should be there

Yes. I've been slowly looking and posting. With this thing it wouldnt surprise me if it wasnt a merc originally lmao. Be nice to find a manual for a 1987 Starcraft 191s so I could actually see what it is.

While searching through google today I found the control that appears to be mine. It's a MARPAC side mount. So next issue I cannot find any catalogs and it appear the company rebranded switched to yogisleep. So now do I cob a switch in there or is there a spot for aftermarket MARPAC parts?

If unable to figure out how to mount a different switch, then guess its time for another control. Might be able to find a used on craigs list. Or find someone parting out a boat
