Re: Motor tilt switch

What is the year or model number of the engine are you working on?

95 I guess, I just bought this boat and the engine, and I have not used it yet, the tilt switch ( red button on the shift lever ) worked ( 2 stage = fast to go up and down, then slow to adjust bow angle)

Re: Motor tilt switch

if it does not motor either up or down, try tapping the motor with a plastic hammer while holding the down button. There are several things that can cause this, but it is often brushes worn or hung up.....

Re: Motor tilt switch

Thank you guys,
I've got fixed !!
The problem was a wire connection. There is a black box that holds wires to the lift motor, and one of the wire was corroded. I changed the wire and it worked perfect !!!:)
