2000 Johnson Ocean Pro 90hp that wont fire !

[reel n m n]

Replaced ignition switch because of bad kill switch, but it did'nt fix the problem. Someone told me of a sensor on the flywheel that will stop fire to the plugs. Anyone familiar with it and if so is there any way to test it ? Fishin's hot and I'm stuck in da back yard ! Thanks for any help.

i had a similar problem with an evinrude i bought. the previous owner had removed the wire that conects the safety switch to a ground. if you have an owners manual, look up safety switchs. for a quick check to see if this is the problem, look under the flywheel to see if there are any unplugged wires or plugs that look like they should have wires. <br /><br />good luck and happy fishin

Why did you replace the ignition switch if the kill switch was bad?<br /><br />Anyway -- which 90 do you have? Post the model number so were all on the same page. Or at least the same chapter......<br /><br />Good luck!
