Time to just go threw all the wiring. You have a boat. It's on the water or not. On the water electrolysis kicks in 1000%. On land corrosion set in. Check and clean the wire plugs, replace if necessary. Replace ground point connectors. Add wire if necessary. Just a note. When I do boats, I solder all connections and use silicone shrink wrap on the wires.

SOURCE: Toyota Tach. is not working properly

well if your car is running normal and not bucking and stalling and shimming all over then i would think about changing the tachometer perhaps good place to start.John

SOURCE: Tach,temp gauge,gas gauge intermitantly works

This problem can be tricky to solve... one thing I have run across is that some Cabrios have a factory fault that lets water leak though the firewall onto the fusebox! Needless to say this will cause any number of electrical problems due to the inevitable corrosion. The problem is fixed by inspecting under the hood directly above the fusebox (where the computer is mounted) Look for signs of debris or moisture. I have successfully repaired these with a good cleaning and the application of an asphalt based waterproofing membrane (unfortunately this was too late in some cases and neccesitated fusebox replacement!) Hope this helps... ;-)

SOURCE: 85 Toyota Cressida. The Sun roof is stuck open!

I was lucky, the owners manual was still with the car and it addressed this problem. Tells you to remove the cover for the controls to the sun roof. Then remove the screw plug that is located in the forward left side of the control box hole (Need big screw driver to break it lose). Then remove the slug surounding the inner adjustment screw, being careful not to lose any shims or washers. Trun the adjustment screw counter clock wise to close the sunroof down and clock wise to shut the sunroof from the open position.
Looks like the motor is shoot. To prevent this from happening again I disconnected the white with black strip wire to the control pad and unsulated the lead. It can easiely be hooked back up in the future if the motor is replaced.
Good luck all!

SOURCE: 89 daytona, headlight motors stopped working

Manually open the headlight doors. There should be a knob on top of the motors, possibly under a rubber boot to turn manually to raise the headlights (safety feature). If they go down when the lights are turned off, listen for the relay click. I don't remember where it is located so you have to listen for the click to find it. The up relay should be in the same area so swap the two to see if they go up and not down, then replace the faulty one. If all else fails, leave them in the up position.

How do you know if a fuse is blown in your pontoon tracker boat

On the engine itself is a series of fuses , pull them out one at a time and look. But a fuse shouldn't cause the alarm to go . Blown fuse means no power , no power means no alarm. Never heard of an ignite alarm might that be a gas vapour alarm ... find out where the sensor is

What should the tilt be set at for a 12 ft pontoon with a 15 hp motor

Bill,
The tilt is dependent on weight in the boat, location of people, etc. The majority of people set it by feel. For a pontoon with low horsepower a general setting is set it so the propeller is horizontal to the floats (pontoons). Since you only have a 15hp on it I would set it this way. That way your propeller is pushing water straight back and all power is utilized in moving the boat and not wasted on raising or lowering the bow/front of the boat under power which is what your tilt up or down does. Raise it up your bow goes up. Tilt it down and your bow goes down.

Mercury 60 Big Foot outboard

you can adjust the throttle position better than what you have described
the first forward action is the gear engagement and the at least 1/2 " lever movement before the engine starts to rev up
the same for reverse
that gives more control over the required rpms

MOTOR SIT TOO LOW IN THE WATER ON PONTOON BOAT WHEN GOING OVER 3000 RPMS

you need to trim the motor by adjusting it so it is more vertical. It must be angled down into the water too much now and so it is pulling itself deeper in the water,
