Motor Trim Switch

stuarbc · #1 08-07-2008, 08:44 AM

Hey guys,

I have a 89 Yamaha 130 using dual lever throttle and gear control. Therefore, the trim button for the engine is not on the handle of the throttle as in most cases....it is actually mounted on the dash panel and the switch is old and needs to be replaced...but I cannot find new switches online....anyone know where to order these?

Also....how hard do you think it would be to swith the control back to a single lever throttle/gear.....the guy who I bought it from said that since he has dual control stations (tower and console) that it was much simpler to rig it up with the dual lever control.....but I have been thinking of taking out the tower controls and switching over to a single lever...anyone done this?
