"I just purchased the boat from a "friend". Was told it needed a new control box. The motor is in forward gear, the two wires coming from the lower unit are not attached to anything. How can I test the lower unit to make sure it shifts properly before I put any $ into this motor. I didn't want to put 12 volts on it as I know nothing about it. I assume that it gets a ground from the body and one lead is forward the other reverse and no power neutral? Any positive help would be great."
