Default Re: johnson outboard problem

Were talking about a FICHT right?

If so you need to hook it up to a computer with the FICHT software to read the codes and then match the code in the manual to tell you which of the many sensors is screwed up.

You can get the software and a manual on ebay or order both from your local dealer. It's a hopeless guessing game without hooking into the computer and having the FACTORY service manual.

On my 150 FICHT (when I used to own one) . . . RPM reduction (slow mode) kicked in a few times . . . I forget why but there are a number of different combinations that cause S.L.O.W to kick in.

Good Luck . . .

Checked spark again and found both port side cylinders were not firing. Plugs, wires and coils are new and good.
It could only be the stators or powerpacks. I can not find a service manual locally. Can any one tell me what the testing proceedures are for the stators? I believe a stator must be bad.
