I wish I could help. Last year my 1992 Johnson 100HP did the same thing. I must have gone over the wiring 10 times and could find nothing. Then this year is has worked perfectly. I dunno what happened.

My '90 does this fairly often. It's always the send unit lever being stuck. Try spraying it with WD-40 and wiggling it to loosen it up. Hope it's this simple on yours, too.
