Man this video saved me money today!! My engine was turning on as normal but when I would shift, the boat wouldn’t move.i found that the nut came off and the rod had just disconnected from the little shift mechanism. I searched everywhere for a resolution then I found this jewel of a video. Much appreciated from Saint Augustine, FL, USA.

@tjsutton5757 5 лет назад

Fishing Adventures Hawkes Bay if I only need about 7 foot of cable and I get 12 foot, Will this be ok?

@FishingAdventuresHB 5 лет назад

@@tjsutton5757 Probably not because where will the access cable go? You could leave it coiled up somewhere as long as it doesn't have sharp bends in it but it would wear a lot faster and be a lot harder to push the control leaver into gear because of the extra friction.

@jrobertsp12 4 года назад

I'm about to replace the cables on a boat I bought today. The seller included them in the sale so I'm hoping this process is virtually the same in mine. This video is a good step by step in the process.

@FishingAdventuresHB 4 года назад

Hi. It should be roughly the same. Only thing that can differ is the way it’s fixed to the controls and motor but it should still be a similar install. Just remember to have the controller leaver in the internal position before connecting to the motor.

hi is it possible to mount a joystick OMC control on the engine Yamaha 30cv

@johnchiovarou1531 4 года назад

a great tutorial thanks, BUT WAIT, I HAVE A PROBLEM TO SOLVE and am looking for feedback. when I am in the water and I trow it into forward will bog down and in many cases stall. when I'm real gentle and slow I can get it to go forward and it runs great once it is moving. when it is out of the water all controls work great. Can it be a bad adjustment in the cables. they don't seem to be constricted.

Hi, I put a Johnson throttle cable 97.5cm but the cable became separated AT CRIMP UPON FIRST USE AFTER INSTALLATION, why did this happen and can it be fixed? your help is so appreciated, thanks Liz.

@The5thKeeper 3 года назад

Thanks for the video. I have done all that today after watching this tutorial. My new throttle box and cables, but it's very stiff and I can't shift throttle forward. Can anyone help? I've double and triple checked it all and everything is looking okay.??

@mvboutdoors Год назад

When setting up the cable length for the shift cable, wouldn't you want the selector in the N position? (like how it shows in your thumbnail) I noticed you had it all the way back when installing the cable -- Did you have the control box set to reverse? I'm going to be replacing cables this weekend and I assumed I would keep the cables in the neutral position for cable installation. Excellent video explaining how the connections work, exactly what I was looking for.

@fewturegaming5399 4 года назад

Thanks for this I just brought me a boat and it doesn't have the throttle lever and cables either just one question where did you buy the cables and do you know where I can find a lever for it

@FishingAdventuresHB 4 года назад

I got the cables from Hawke’s bay marine. They had to order them from America though for my motor. The other place you can try would be firmance marine or boating outdoors depending on the make of motor you have.

@Pacifictheory Год назад

How do you know the correct position of the motor before you attach the cables? I noticed you said the motor was in neutral both on th remote and motor. How to tell which position is neutral on the motor??

Why can,t I find anything about a Mercury 25hp with a control handle that won,t shift in either gear

@jolssonusa 3 года назад

Very educational. Looks like it’s a Mercury EFI 200 hp. I have a 200 hp 1994 Pro Max EFI and my throttle is not holding constant rev. It slowly reduces it unless I keep my hand on the shifter. Any idea what could be the issue? Many thanks Jonas from the US.

@FishingAdventuresHB 3 года назад

Hi. mine was doing the same thing. on top of the controls mine has a round dial that is used to tighten or lossen the throttle leaver. you will have to play around with that to het the sensitivity adjusted to your needs.

@FishingAdventuresHB 6 лет назад

All good mate I appreciate your comment. The concept should be the same there might just be a few minor differences with your Motor but it should still have 1 a throttle leaver and 2 a gear selector leaver on the motor. If your motor has the steering arm and throttle on the motor and not a proper steering wheel and controll box it will be a little more comlecated than just replacing cables.

Quick question! I have a 40hp Mercury engine and this video was very informative! I have my fuel line, throttle & gear lines already. But I don't have my battery hook up yet and quite new to this so I'm a little lost. Just need to know what I need for this. Can send pictures of my controls and engine if needed! Cheers for any advice!

@FishingAdventuresHB 3 года назад

fraser mcguffin The battery normally has 2 separate cables or 1 cable with 2 cores normally black and Red running directly from Engen starter motor to the battery. the battery does not run through the controls

@kaosaephan6303 6 лет назад

Great info. I replaced my shift/throttle cable and now when I put in gear it grind loud. Do you know how to fix that problem? Thanks.

@FishingAdventuresHB 6 лет назад

This means your motor refs is too high when in Nutral position extend throttle cable little bits at a time in order to lower your engen refs then grinding should stop.

Are these cables universal, do they work with all major outboard brands?

@FishingAdventuresHB 4 года назад

MPC007_EXP nope many different varieties they mostly work in the same basic way but might look a bit different or have a different way of attaching. You’ll have to take your motors make and model to a dealer in order to get the correct one for your setup.

You have to make sure Gear selector arm on motor is in the neutral position and your control is in neutral position. then install cable and adjust length to fit. Also ensure that you haven’t mixed the position of the throttle and shifter cables up on the controls
