I have a Johnson 90 HP VRO boat engine (model j90TLAEM). It appears I do have not have power to the trim or boat engine. Also appears gauges on the panel are not working. Lights are working and possibly the pup. All fuses in the front part of my boat near steering wheel appear in working order. I have cleaned all connections to a fully charged battery. I have not ran any voltage meter checks. Boat sat for 2 years was working fine back then.

The issue in my belief has to do with power to the trim and engine. The trim did work briefly (once to raise). I think this maybe be a blown fuse in a location I have not checked. Is there a fuse in the engine itself or the throttle controller?

The other idea may have to do with my perko switch itself, does it have a fuse?

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

I found it, it's picture #2 the red connection in the lower right (under the yellow wire). Number 53 as seen here: http://www.marineengine.com/parts/j...&manufacturer=Johnson&section=Ignition+System

If you did not know where the fuse was, its not easy to find it. But once you know...you think DUH! Thank you for the help.
