New boat with merc 5.7

[nola mike]

Last week was pretty crazy and the weekend was spent at Lake George in New York. My cousin jumped the switch and it started. Have boat at a guys house to adjust the switch. I still dont have the S/N but will get that. This is not the MOB switch at the helm. Cousin calls it a switch, might not be a switch. He sent me a picture but had to reset my phone so lost pictures.

We have it figured out. I will post up here in a few days after its fixed with the proper terminology.

oh, shift interrupt switch.

oh, shift interrupt switch.

That sounds like the correct thing yes.

UPDATE
My cousin came over while I was away for a weekend and got it started. Took it to a mechanic buddy and he replaced shift cable and adjusted choke. While doing this re realized one bolt on starter wont tighten and another is broke so he is replacing those but needs to pull engine to do so. While he is at it I am having him install the autopilot as well.

I learned alot from this little problem. Thanks everyone.

Might be he's referring to the shift interrupt switch.
