jeffb5.8 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 (edited) Hi All The trim switch on my Throttle controller is starting to play up, it goes up fine but I have to jiggle it to get it to work on the down. the control box is a ETEC product and I want to hopefully just replace the switch. It came on the boat from new with the Etec. the switch on the motor works perfectly, so it’s just the throttle one playing up. any Etec owner changed the switch only, I can find the whole handle including the switch, but not the switch on its own.

I’d look at aftermarket one if you haven’t already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noelm Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Does it look like the switch is replaceable separately? Can you take a picture or supply a model number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
