Trim Switch

[FreeBeeTony]

I have a Dual Lever Binnacle Mount Remote Control P/N: 175259.
Has dual switches for the Trim and it looks like the Starboard one is shot.
Hoping I can buy just the switches................and not the entire control assembly.
Any suggestions?

Looks like the switches are available.----I see a price of $250 for it.-------What testing was done to verify switch is bad ?

 

[FreeBeeTony]

I took the handle apart, exposed some bare wire and used an ohmmeter.
What P/N do you see for $250?

 

[racerone]

Look it up under the accessories listing for 95 model year.----See if that is what you need.

 

[FreeBeeTony]

I can't locate it.
Do you have a P/N?

gotta love ebay, I got a spare intake for my old pre-vortec 4.3 (in case the old one rusts out, good ones not easy to find) and a spare power steering cyl in great shape for the old '88 Cobra. I've been slowly stockpiling parts for this thing for some years, finding old parts is a skill in itself!

Hey Lou!.........ready for spring?

Well I opened up the cover and put in a new battery, one of mine was getting weak (but was 7 years old)
I have a new PMGR starter going in, and am just waiting a few weeks to pull off my winter cover. Should be ready in a few weeks. You know any good places that will do bottom paint? That's one job I don't do myself. I do the drive/transom mount but not the bottom. I'm in Huntington Township but can travel to the south shore if needed.....

I've been under the cover all winter........always doing something!
No suggestions on the painting........I do it all myself.

I figured that knowing you Tony!
OK then, this boat has always been painted with Pettit Unipoxy, if I was to try to do it myself should I stick with that, or switch to a multi season ablative? It has not been painted in about 4 seasons because it was out of the water while I did the engine work and other repairs. I have found with the local boatyards sometimes they don't seem too interested in doing bottom paint unless you are giving them all your business. I do everything else myself including painting the drive but laying under the boat sanding that toxic stuff just does not appeal to me!
