Ok, I’ve got this '87 Mercury 45hp and I want to put a switch at the back of the boat. I think I know ho to do it, but wanted some input just in case I don’t know as much as I think I do.
Thanks, Bob

you can buy a 3 way momentary switch at Lowes for less than $5.00.
run the hot wire (red) to the center pin and the green to the top and the blue to the bottom can jump the wires from under the trim selonoids where the wires go to the control /shifter box
After some testing yesterday, I got a on/off/on way toggle switch wired in & mounted. Since my motor/pump is mounted in the boat, it was easy to hook up the red, green, & blue wires. I just need to get a momentary switch today or tomorrow.
Thanks
