Re: how to replace throttle trim switch? here
No takers on this one? Can anyone point me toward a diagram or something? I can feel a scew on the backside of the lever, if I get this out with this get me started? Also, when I put the lever all the way back, I can see a set screw deep inside the hub of the pivot- if I take this out, will the lever come off the pivot hub?
OK, I'll get a picture this evening and post it. assuming it is either the switch or the connections on the switch because the connections at the pump and the relays are working fine. Only way to confim is get the switch out and look for connection issues and test the swithc with a meter. [links]

I read that this crimper is a good one for a decent price from this site. I'll probably give it a shot if there are no objections or better options. [links]
(. Not that I'm suggesting it. ) Something I have done in the past to differentiate wire runs of the same colored wire is to use colored heat shrink tubing. Cut up 1/2" pieces of white, red or black (etc.) and shrink it onto the wire every 4-6". It's not the best, but at least you will have a permanent mark on the wire and can tell it apart from other wires of the same color. I've only done this for accessories, not sure I would do it on something as important as the engine harness. more
New wiring harnesses are available, even on Ebay, complete with the cannon plug molded onto the wires, much better than trying to splice onto the old cannon plug. Be aware, There are different pin-outs for the cannon plugs, different number of pins depending on the vintage of the cable. Older cables used less pins/wires and you need to find one that matches the receptacle on the engine (and plug a the helm if used). more
I have looked on ebay for the harness, but seems like none of them match the part number that I got for the harness from mercruiserparts.com. The ones that are listed for the 3.7 are all used so who knows if they are really any better shape than mine. mercruiserparts.com says the part is NLA. No surprise..
Re: splicing new wires into original wiring harness
The gauge of the wire does vary so I'll be using the same gauge as the original wires. GenuineDealz has some great prices.. I ended up finding the wire at a better price at GreatLakesSkipper though. I got a few terminals from genuineDealz though that I couldn't find locally, and their 10awg duplex was cheaper than greatLakesSkipper.
Don't fall for the "Genuine OEM is better" routine. We offer a much superior "Made in USA" product with a longer warranty and for less!
