[wellcraftman]

[fishbonejr]

[msbhammer]

Let me see if I have a picture of my contol, its a side control mount, dont know if the switch is any differnt or not. No cost, just a donut and a coffee on the rebound

i think if his is a center console than he needs a console binnacle mount. not a side one dont think that one will work.

[msbhammer]

The switch comes out of the control handle, so it could work maybe. Not sure.

[macojoe]

Hey I need one of them!! My new control didn't come with one :'(

[wellcraftman]

hi,
my control box mounts by the steering wheel and the switch is mounted inside the handle. you can operate it with your thumb. its like a toggle switch. it looks like it would work ,even though my control box is a little different. let me knw.i can try it. thanks alot

[macojoe]

yep thats the puppy!! He will fix you right up.

[fishbonejr]

Hey I need one of them!! My new control didn't come with one *:'(


tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bad

[msbhammer]

So the answer is ??, it will work ?, if so, PM me your address and I'll mail it out two you. I belive I have two, M.J. you still need one. The switch only or you need the control arm as well for a quick silver.

[msbhammer]

Here is a better picture of the trim switch. The one switch on the left is brand new. The one on the right doesnt work. The wire set up is three wires. Red, Blue, and black. Will have to splice the red wire though. I shaffed the red wire when installing it. No biggy. Let me know if it will work. I'm in the giving away for free mood right now. Hmm, hopefully Chum will read this thread. *::) ::) ::) ::) ::)

[macojoe]

Thanks, but I have a OMC I need one that looks the same.

Thanks any way!! I was just trying to ho stuff like Hammer ;D

[msbhammer]

M.J. does your throttle arm have the cut out for the tilt trim, if so let me know. My buddy down the street has his boat repair shop. I'll look for one and grab it for ya.
Post a pic if you can.

[macojoe]

Tell you what send me your motor and I will send you CB's bracket!! ;D

[msbhammer]

M.J. is starting to be a Free trading Broker HO. ;D ;D 8) :o :o :o

[msbhammer]

Wellcraftman. Got your pm. Will mail it out to ya this weekend. Let me know if it works for ya. 8)

[macojoe]

This is the new one has no switch at all.

This is the old one. This one had the switch but all was broken.

Thanks Hammer!! I can smell that bracket!

[lumberslinger178]

I smell a fresh box of Donuts being mailed to me. *;D ;D
by the time u get them they wont be fresh get a gift card :P

[msbhammer]

M.J., I'll check with my boat repair guy. He has racks of old controls. Surprised he works on my Merc. He doesnt like touching Mercs. Only Johnsons and Evinrudes.

[macojoe]

Smart guy!! ;D Thanks

[msbhammer]

What set up do you have now ?? A toggle switch on the dash ?

[fishbonejr]

just curious i am pickey about how my boat looks thats why i am redoin it but how do you guys live with the wires runnin all over the place that would drive me nuts.

[macojoe]

Home made on a wire so I can do it from inside or out of the boat.

reel sent me a water proof switch for the transom, just need to get this handle straighten out.

[msbhammer]

M.J., Nice homemade set up. ;D

Fishbone, when I bought my V, it looked like the boat had been rewired three times and they left all the old wiring in. I yanked all the wiring out and rewired it. She's all snug and neat now. ;D

[fishbonejr]

oooo ok but i just saw mjs not yours.

[macojoe]

Fish, them wires hanging was from when I was doing things over.

Before I just added this Evinrude I had a Yamaha, so all the rigging had to be changed!! and this pic was taken while converting.
The wires have since been tucked away nice except the remote for the tilt which I hope to have fixed soon. With Hammers help.

[fishbonejr]

ok i just dodnt know sorry

[msbhammer]

Wellcraftman, here is a better picture of the trim switch. I pulled it out of te control arm today. Its a brand new switch. Bought in August for $35.00, but as you can see, I shafed the positive wire. So all you need to do is add a bit more wire to the positve wire. A-1 condition.
If its gonna work, I'll put it out in Mondays mail.
Hammer. *8)

[wellcraftman]

Hammer. What'd they do, put a padlock on your puter at work last night? ;D Or did you actually have to work instead of browsing the site while partaking coffee and donuts? ;D ;D ;D

[msbhammer]

No time to surf. :'(

[chumbucket]

[msbhammer]

Should be in bed. Big day ahead of me. Family X-Mas party. But I gotta catch up on the gossip I missed out on from being stuck at work and working. ;D
If my spelling gets bad, its the jelly from the jelly donut drying up between the keys. LOL ;D :o

[chumbucket]
