60 yam 4 stroke tiller and gauges

[stevewallin]

gday all,<br />have a 60 yam 4 stroke carbie outboard. Did a search to no avail...<br />Outboard is a forward steer model with gauges etc etc but I have picked up a tiller complete for $50...<br />Tiller bolts up nicely and motor starts, stops, trim/tilt etc etc all good.<br />Two questions:<br />Is it possible to get the factory digital gauges operating on this engine in tiller format, tried plugging the factory harness in and got nothing on the gauges???<br />And second, in order to get trim/tilt on the tiller I have used the loom that connects to the trim/tilt switch at the port side engine cowl. Is it possible to tee into these lines and have both sets of controls??<br /><br />thanks<br />steve

post the model number, the international motors are sometimes very different from the US versions, some of the later model F60 motors have a trolling speed switch on the tiller.<br /> but if the motor as originally a remote control version having a tiller will only alter the method of shifting and throttle control and nothing electrical.

Relatively early model, no trolling speed switch.<br />I believe its a F60AETL-69WL<br />I get the feeling that the gauges are lacking ignition active power. Was hoping the forward control harness would bring this in???<br /><br />thanks for the reply<br />Steve

thats a non US model so about all I feel comfortable with is basic 4 stroke operation, your assesment of lack of ign is most likly correct, if the motor was originally a remote control with electric start just use all the ign harness's and trim/alarm harness's and it will work again as the electronics dont care how its shifted nor throttled.
