Switch troubles

[bobs68bird]

I have a motorguide trolling motor from about 1985. It's a brute (the perfector) 41lbs. The problem is the toggle switch on top of the control panel went bad, someone tried to replace it and never finished. The wires were never reconected to the switch. My brother in-law said the switch is a three position switch,used for forward, off, reverse function. So far I can only get it to work in the off, and forward position. Can someone help with a diagram of how to wire it so all three positions work. Thanks

Re: Switch troubles

Take a picture and show us what you are dealing with -- remember, we can't see your motor (especially one that's been half repaired).
