Dual Trim/Tilt and Jack Plate switch on steering wheel

Post: # 10260Post VultureNo2 »

I have a turning signal style setup that has jack plate control and trim/tilt control on the steering wheel. When I put it all back together, everything performed perfectly but the switches are both bad. I poked around a little with no luck at local marina's for the replacements without any luck. Anyone know where I can find replacements for it or another on wheel setup. Please put a link up if you have a good source. Thanks, Bill

Thanks Russ, Something like that but I don't have hydraulic steering. Do you think it matters? Bill

Just a simple up and down. I cant imagine it would cost a whole lot either.

Man, I forgot what my boat used to look like. LoL

Yeah - my searching left me with a few options both short term and long term. Hippie, does that setup handle both tilt/trim and jack plate or would I need 2 of them? I think I am about a week away from a first water test. It depends how much I get done tomorrow. Bill

yes, You would need 2 of them. That one just does the trim. I have manual jack plate so I only need the 1.

Yeah Russ - That's what I am looking for. I took the switches off the bracket and was just trying to replace the switches, but have spent too much time on it already. I found one switch so far that will work, not a perfect fit, but want a better long term solution. Thanks. Bill
