Re: Question about I/O's
Well this is what I've found so far. The switches can be completely disassembled and cleaned. Basically they are a copper cup and two copper contacts. unfortunately copper oxidizes so I cleaned everything with emery cloth and applied a thin film of dielectric grease. Now I found a new problem that is probably throwing a wrench in they system.

This is two wires (green and purple) that go the limit switch(es) on the outdrive I think. The insulation on them was completely rotted, probably all the way from the coupler terminals to the switch itself for all I know.
Do these two wires go to one limit switch or two? neither of these two wire are grounded out so I guessed that they might complete a circuit and tied the two together and now when I press the middle button I can raise the outdrive all the way up.
The top (Up) button still does nothing so I'll have to do more research on that.
The Bottom (In) button doesn't do anything either. I thought it was working but all it does is make noise. I can hear the pump running but no movement on the outdrive??? What's up with that? I did add about 2/3 of a quart of oil to the pump reservoir after tightening down a pressure line on the bottom back of the pump.
Got frustrated and am working on getting the lights to work now.
Hey GA Boater: I'll try the other forums too. Thanks. Also I only see one relay on the front of the pump. Are there more?
I REALLY appreciate all the input from everyone buy the way!
