Hello we've been working a 1974 jhonson 85hp/ 85esl74b with a Powershift 2 controller but have had little luck finding schematics and wiring diagrams trying to trace out bad wires and getting power to the starter to get running.
When we got the boat we cleaned up and went right to the motor it had been sitting for 8 years after owner died. Outside of motor was weathered a little had been uncovered and sun bleached clcleaned up lookd to be well taken care of under the cover all wires are in great shape and motor gaskets well so we pulled carbs to clean and put kits in dropped lower R/R impller and R/R gear oil.
Now we're on to firing up and with battery on 29DC 860MCA 860MCA@20hr battery with key on we were only getting the choke switch to move so opened up the controller to trace out and are at a stopping point looking for some direction.
Long post apologies just trying to lay it out. Any direction would be most appreciated.
Thank you for you're time.
