just bought a 2000 9.9 4 str elec with tilt. It did not come with controls so I bought a used commander 2000 and have hooked it up but the tilt does not work. Its a two wire motor blue and green and I have them plugged into the 8 pin harness with the bullet connectors. they each get power from the toggle in the switch but the tilt motor won't run. It does run fine when I connect power to each wire. apparantly reversing the polarity. the remote control I have must not reverse the ground when the toggle switch is activated. can anyone tell me what I need now a different toggle sitch maybe or should this one work fine.<br />Thanks

Look very carefully at the grounds at your tilt relays and those relays in general.Very cheesy.

I beleive the motor should have a constant ground -12vdc.,the green to +12vdc.to down sol. and the blue to +12vdc to the up sol..I may have misunderstood that you connected 12v to the green & blue w/out a ground ,is that right??
