Volvo Penta d4-210 DPH Outdrive problem

[magellan-kingston]

I have a two year old Seaswirl 2901 with Duel Volvo Penta D4-210 DPH stern drives. The boat sits in the water year round and it sat for about 4 month without engaging the props. I recently noticed that the Port drive would not engage when put into gear (forward or reverse) and when I increase the RPM,s the engine would shut down and the alarm would come on. Engines run perfectly, oil pressure and temperature are within range. Can anybody give me a clue what is going on???

Not outboards, M-K.

I will move to I/Os

Try disconnecting the shift actuator cable. Then see if the actuator is actually moving. If it goes full stroke, see if you can manually move the shift cable to forward/reverse.
