Thank you for posting this. Listing the part number you to replace those brutal bolts helped a ton. Just came back from Lowe’s with them.
Thank You. Excellent video and was a great help. I like that there was no long rambling or techno music on a loop.
Exactly what I was looking for.
Thank you for the video ! I was hesitated to take it apart, but after watching your video, it gave me a little assurance that things won't fly apart when i open up the control box. I have it opened now and waiting for the switch to come in. In the mean time, I grease up all of the movable parts and and ready for the next 20 more years 😂.
Thanks, saved me a headache. Mine looks slightly different but close enough. It was assembled incorrectly before I got it and the throttle wouldn't move at all.
I screwed the advance lever into place first and moved it back and forth while putting the main plate on. That helped it go into the groove a lot easier.
Thank you so much for the vídeo. It gives me an idea of what to expect. I lost my key and had to open to ser the Ignition key code. Luckily I got the key. You have the code in the border of the Ignition body. And I took the chance to grease all. Mine was 1994 and it still works fine, they were good ones. Greetings from Argentina!!
Nice job on showing detail.. keep up the great work.
Thanks for the video I will be doing this coming weekend!
Great info! You made my life so much easier!

Thanks for doing the video. At 2:08 I found a better way. Instead of trying to put the cover onto the spring cog which is impossible, I took the part it fits into and installed that first into the cover then put the cover on. Piece of cake.

the first 3 bolts you undo to take unit off the boat are they screwed into black housing or should just slide out. mind a stuck solid. any thoughts on how to remove if they just slide out i have put nut back on and wacked but not joy. cheers
Cool insight. Not just right what I wanted to see here. I'm curious as to finding the part number or dimensions of the roller that sits on the U-shaped canal on the shifter mechanism. The groove is about 12mm wide but the knob on gas side is much thinner, pretty sure there is supposed to be a bearing of some sort there.
HOX: If you take the entire mechanism apart, take care when installing the shifter mechanism (the mechanism on the bottom, one with the U-groove) so that the neutral switch doesn't break. You have to make sure to press in the small red button, if you install it on top of it it will break as you screw the assembly back together. (Neutral switch seen on video at 2:22 , its the gray small box right behind the black plastic cover bit)
Thanks for posting! Helped me out a bunch!

What if you take it all apart and that little plastic piece that you're talking about not missing or not forgetting to put back on is not there? it was working fine without it I got in there to adjust and fix my fast idle
Thanks for watching my video! First, do you have exactly the same controller as mine? If not, my video may not apply. Second, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. On mine, it is made of teflon and is used as both a spacer and a "lubricant." You may like my other videos. Just type Lsailor1 in the UA-cam search bar. Like them? Subscribe for the latest!

at 4:02.... what are those called or how can I find replacements TIA
Is there a number on the ignition switch assembly that identifies the key it takes? I have one of these throttles with no key and need a replacement key. They sell them if you know the number for the key. Or do I have to replace the whole ignition assembly
Thanks for watching my video! I do not know the answer to that. Marineengine.com will probably sell an entire key assembly that you can put in. You may like my other videos. Just type Lsailor1 in the UA-cam search bar. Like them? Subscribe for the latest! Best, The Sailor.
Nice job, but didn't cover my issue. I have a control box set up for left side mounting, Do you have a video showing how to switch the handle to other side for right side mounting ?
Thanks for watching my video and your kind comment! Unfortunately not. You may be able to go to Marineengine.com and find the parts to make that happen. You may like my other videos. Just type Lsailor1 in the UA-cam search bar. Like them? Subscribe for the latest! Best, The Sailor.
thanks for all of your information, help alot.
Jon Krueger You are entirely welcome!
On the fast idle what do I have to manipulate to put it in the proper alignment? I may have moved it on disassembly. I have to replace the ignition switch, that's why I'm in there lost key, and I'm a green horn on mechanics. I like your vid and the stills of the control unit. Take care.
Thanks for watching my video! At 1:53 you will see the setup for the fast idle. The top circled round cog will go into the bottom circled indent. You will know you have it right when it all fits together. Another possible problem is the shifting cables "barrels" that have to fit just so. More questions? Send me a line! Best, The Sailor.
I'm suspecting my kill switch is causing me grief. I didn't even know it was there, as I've always just used the key. I was hoping this video elaborated on it some. there's not even a switch on mine, should there be?
Thanks for the Info helped a lot David.

i just tried to get into my quicksilver 2000 (im pretty sure thats the model) 2 of the 3 screws broke. Im sure the 3rd will break if i try it, but i decided to wait. I assume I will need and extraction kit. I have never used obe of these before. Can you give me an idea how to go about this? Of course I will be buying the suggested screws after this hassle.
Thanks for watching my video Tim! Yes, it is not fun having them break. Here is a video on how to use the extractor set: ua-cam.com/video/SMrDYJvY0Ts/v-deo.html You may like my other videos. Just type Lsailor1 in the UA-cam search bar. Like them? Subscribe for the latest! Best, The Sailor.

What is the short cable with female plug about a foot away from ignition box
Thanks for watching my video! IF you are talking about the diagram at 2:56 in the video, it is probably the kill switch. You may like my other videos. Just type Lsailor1 in the UA-cam search bar. Like them? Subscribe for the latest! Best, The Sailor.
I just bought a boat with this controller for a 1996 mercury 90 hp. The fast idle lever does not work. Is this a electronic idle and what could be the cause of this issue.
Thanks
Thanks for watching my video Pat! No, it is not an electronic idle. First, make sure your carbs are set at the proper RPM. Then it is all a mater of adjusting the cables on the engine. Take a look at this video: ua-cam.com/video/J9-u8c09s_0/v-deo.html
All the fast idle does is push the cable a little bit further than the normal throttle. You might like my other videos on Mercury outboards and other things. Just type Lsailor1 in the UA-cam search bar. Like them? Subscribe for the latest! Best, The Sailor.
Thanks for watching my video Pat! No, there is not an electronic idle. All the fast idle lever does is advance the cable a little bit. I would make sure that the controller is well greased, buy some new cables and take a look at these two videos:

THANKS FOR THE GREAT VIDEO,I i have the same control box,but i need a new starting and kill switch. any suggestions, ? thanks
Thanks for watching my video and your kind comment! Marineengine.com is a great source. Just need your engine serial number. You may like my other videos. Just type Lsailor1 in the UA-cam search bar. Like them? Subscribe for the latest! Best, The Sailor.
Love your videos. I have a 1990 mercury 50elpto 3cyl. lately I have a no spark condition. also when I activate the kill switch the motor will still crank and turn. disconnected kill switch wire same thing. will crank and turn but not start due to no spark. what could be the issue? thanks
Thanks for watching my video! While I am not closely familiar with your engine I have some suggestions. Test the kill switch for continuity. If it is bad, you need a new one. Likewise for the neutral start switch. An engine that old may have bad ignition coils. Here is my video on how to check them: ua-cam.com/video/dXBe_T6MuLo/v-deo.html If you go to marineengine.com, you may be able to find schematics on where these items are located for testing. Also a great place to get new parts. Good luck! Best, The Sailor.
Do you have to dissemble completely to check buzzer? No buzzer when turn key and no buzzer with I disconnected oil tank wires. Thinking my buzzer might be bad or I have bad connection.
Thanks for watching my video Jeff! Sorry to hear about your problem. You have two ways to check the buzzer. Take apart the controller and jump it with 12 Volts. The other way is to refer to the wiring diagram and disconnect the wires at the tank and jump those with 12 volts. I would recommend taking apart the controller. That way, you are right there to replace it. If it is good, you have a wiring fault somewhere between the buzzer and the tank. Best, The Sailor.
So... took it apart. No power at buzzer. Unhooked wires for oil tank still nothing. Took buzzer off and put 12v to it and it worked. Wiggled and wiggled wires near switch and it started working. Found what I think was the bad connection and pulled apart and tighten and got to work steadily. I started putting it back together (tight fit for wires). checked again before putting cover on and now nothing no matter what I do I gets nothing. I'm afraid one of the connections might have grounded out when put back. Buzzer still works with 12v. Is there a fuse somewhere or could I blew something else?
Good for you Jeff! There is a fuse on the cover plate on the side of the engine. I would try using dielectic grease on ALL connections. After 21 years, there is bound to be corrosion. Another alternative (I HIGHLY suggest) that I did to my motor is to get rid of the oil injection system entirely. You have to mix your oil and gas, but you will know that it will ALWAYS get the lubrication it needs. Best, The Sailor.
Thanks but none of it makes sense. Everything I read now says a solid beep would be temperature sensor not oil and if it was oil sensor then unplugging the light blues wires under tank should make it stop not start. Do you an easy way that should make the alarm sound? I'm thinking more that it might be my alarm module and bad a connection. I plan to grease all connections like you suggested.
I know this goes against what you would think, but I totally disconnected the buzzer and tossed it. Without oil injection; not necessary. Since it is also is used for overheating, by the time it buzzes, the damage will already have been done. The best thing you can do is look at the cooling stream from the water pump. Not there? Day on the water is over...Best, The Sailor.
my boat has the same setup. my throttle cable needs to be fixed but when I try to take this off the screws just spin in place. I suspect the fiber glass is striped. however I don't understand why it's still in there so tight if the screws just spin?
Thanks for watching my video Cody! What you want to do is take off the entire backing wood plate that it is attached to. In my case, it is the white vinyl covered wood you see in the picture. When you do that, you can get to the nuts that the screws are attached to and use a wrench/vice grips to hold them. You may like my other videos. Just type Lsailor1 in the YouTUbe search bar.

Sailor, at the 2:28 mark there's a large t shaped plastic shield or guard that fits under the cable holder and has 2 screw hole, what is that for? Im working on a Quicksilver unit from 2003 and it fell out during take down. It looks from the bend that it goes some where behind or in front of the shift control. What is it supposed to guard against? Great video
Thanks for watching my video and your nice comment Mr. Binx! It is called a "seperator" and is number 48 on the following diagram. www.marineengine.com/parts/mercury-marine-accessory-parts/remote-controls-and-components/1994-up/commander-2000-remote-control-16900-series I believe it does seperate, but it also acts as a "lubricant" to let the parts slide on.

Lsailor1, I have this same exact remote, my throttle keeps getting hung up in reverse and I have to take this apart, put it back together and it works fine in forward. As soon as I click it into reverse it's stuck there and won't go forward.. I don't remember seeing the plastic collar you mention at 3:38.. could this be the reason why?
Thanks.
Thanks for watching my video Jacob. I would suspect that the foot gear case might be the problem. Make sure there is enough fluid there. Then disconnect the throttle cables at the engine. See if you can manually put the engine in reverse. If that is OK, I would suspect the cables themselves. Might want to look at this video.

Man I have been screwing the 10mm nuts for more than 15 minutes now and they are not coming out. Am I missing something?
Thanks for watching my video! I trust you have a wrench on the 10mm nuts? They are the type with teflon on the inside, so you need to use the phillips on the front and a wrench on the back.

Our boat has the same set up but I was wondering how to replace the trim and tilt switch on the handle thank you
Thanks for watching my video Tyler! Here is a Dropbox link with exploded views that should help you take it apart. Best, The Sailor. www.dropbox.com/sh/i3xrevqc0vosifw/AAD_sc92ydvRNAIZ_AO2nL82a?dl=0
Thank you for it installed do you now know where to get a 2 Way gas sending unit
Glad to help out! I get most of my marine items from marineengine.com Best, The Sailor.
Hi there. Great video. Any chance I can get access to the dropbox info? I have a new one on the way an no idea where to start. Thanks very much.
I have a extra pigtail with a gray wire on the side, can you shed any light? looking for a tach led. Thankyou for any help.
Thanks for watching my video Jon! Hopefully these two pics of the wiring can help:

I have one of thease and I changed it to another one of the same type but when I put it back together now the fast idel doesn't work at all now when I left the leaver nothing happens what did I do wrong?
Appreciate you watching my video Karl! The fast idle lever has a direct connection to the throttle cable and just "pushes" it to increase the RPMs. See this link:www.dropbox.com/s/xtq2t0daas96uh4/Fast%20idle.jpg?dl=0
You probably need to go back in and make sure that the area in the big red circle is set properly and that you have plenty of grease throughout. This page might help as well.: www.marineengine.com/parts/mercury-marine-accessory-parts/remote-controls-and-components/1986-thru-1993/commander-2000-remote-control. Is your idle RPMs fine? If not, you need to go to the engine and reset the "barrel" to increase/decrease the RPMs. Best, The Sailor.
Hi. Great video. i have a question does the pin go into the straight or curved slot. thanks
Thanks for watching my video and your kind comment! Not sure what pin you are talking about. Could you reference a time point in the video? Thanks! You may like my other videos. Just type Lsailor1 in the UA-cam search bar. Like them? Subscribe for the latest! Best, The Sailor.
Thanks for getting back to me.1. 52 and 3.13 on video the fast idler does it fit the straight or curved slot. Thanks
My pleasure! At 2:13 you can see the fixed cog (without grease). It fits into a half oval (that you can see at the top of the time points you mentioned) and I believe there are two (one at the top and one at the bottom that is covered by grease). The pin on the circle (top red circle) fits into the idle arm I believe. It has been about 5 years since I did the video. When you take it apart, you will see how it goes. Take LOTS of pics as you take it apart! Best, The Sailor.
I know you're not going to believe this but you could actually make a video now with sound.

thanks to the video I have found my problem. The issue I have is that although I can switch gears easily and use fast idle(all the while seeing the throttle cable move), I do not have the ability to have WOT. about 1/4 of the way up the throttle seems to stick horribly and a small "pop" sound happens as if the throttle linkage is jumping off the cam bearing. I take apart the control box and don't see anything out of place. after watching your video (at 2:25) you mention not to lose the plastic washer to the left of the box..... well apparently I did. I'm struggling to find a replacement part/ part number. Any guidance???www.marineengine.com/parts/mercury-marine-accessory-parts/remote-controls-and-components/1986-thru-1993/commander-2000-remote-control

your pictures are upside down
Thanks for watching my video John! Very observant of you. I had the cables to the engine connected so that I could show the cable "barrels" and how they had to sit. As a consequence, I could only take pictures as you see them. I hope that you were able to still understand my intent? Best, The Sailor.
Sorry, but not liking this style - its not a video, a collection of stills ..

Question what is fast idle for
Thanks for watching my video! Fast idle is used for warming up the engine quickly. If you try to just immediately start out, the engine will die because it is not warm enough.
