Another starting problem

10-02-2003, 11:34 AM

When I turn the key to start the boat, quite often nothing happens... I have to wiggle the throttle until it starts. From what I understand, there is some kind of neutral switch that makes sure it is in neutral before you can start it? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
B

It sounds like your Neutral Safety Switch is going bad. Should be pretty easy to replace, but I have never had to do it.

To verify the safety switch is working properly, tie wires to one side of neutral safety switch. If engine starts each and every time, the neutral safety switch was causing your interference.

They're pretty inexpensive, and you can pick one up HERE.

I own and operate Silver Cove Marine, which is an inboard boat restoration, service, and sales facility located in Mooresville, North Carolina. We specializes in Nautiques and Correct Crafts, and also provide general service for Nautiques fifteen years old and older.
