Ouestion for CORM

[sdglover]

I don't know what I'm doing but trying.<br />Can't seem to get it to go in forward or reverse. I checked to make sure that power was getting from the elec. shift back to the stren. Power is going down in the stren. I took the stren off to see where the wires were going. Magnets right? How can I check to see if they are working. How would I hook up the wires, and the tell if it is working or not. I checked both wires before took I off. In reverse one wire was hot, and in forward the other was hot. But wouldn't go in gear.<br /><br />------------------<br />sdglover@cox-internet.com

Hi Stan,<br />In the diagram the wire (37) connects to the forward gear magnet(11) and the Reverse (22)<br />When powered up they pull the spring clutch<br />(13) to it.Streching it out so it will wrap tightly around the Forward clutch drum(12)<br />engageing F gear.If the spring is broke you can turn the prop either direction with ease.<br />If the drum is wore out the prop will turn<br />both ways,but harder counter clockwise. If the magnet is shorted prop will turn easy<br />both ways. If the oil is the wrong weight<br />it may not work either. It needs 75 wt LU Oil<br />to work correctly.<br />Hook the wire to 12volts positive and the neg to the LU case to test,if working right<br />you can turn prop about 1/4turn counter clockwise and it should lock into gear for<br />F gear. Reverse check is the opposite direction and the ather wire hooked to the pos battery terminal.<br /><br />...have fun...corm (I'll try to send more pictures)
