Good day all,

I have a MerControl throttle box running a 150 hp Merc 1500 motor and my ignition switch has gone out. My ignition switch is a 5 pole with a separate choke and I wanted to know if its possible to replace it with a 5 pole push to choke ignition switch?

Thanks in advance,

Brook

Study this, (click to enlarge) then come up with something that will work..Just find a switch, then run a seperate choke push button

Thank you,

Do you think that if I found a 5 pole push to choke, that would work? or do you think I would still need to run the separate choke?

I don't know..switch would have different positions for the wires. They are complicated (I'm not very good at things electronic...I spin wrenches best)
