I looked on the evinrude site and they say NLA. Go to the top secret files at the beginning of this forum and look for salvage yards.

Re: Trim switch replacement

Hey guys---New guy on board, I am a Evinrude fan and owner. I need a wiring diagram that shows the wiring from the tilt switch to the tilt motor. I know about the 3 way switch, blue, green and red wire to the battery. There is a 3 way plug on the end of wiring harness---Green, Blue and black.----Should I ground the black to the battery and green and blue to the armature casing.-----I am told there is a white wire going to the armature fields from the points, is this wrong. If it is correct where does it hook to within the fields. Can you post a diagram..
Motor is a 1974 Evinrude 50 HP Sizzler, electric start.

Re: Trim switch replacement

There should be lots of those used handles around.----Just a matter of looking in salvage yards, calling dealers etc.--Your location does have an influence on how readily they are available.
