Default Trim Limit switch interchangeable with Trim Sender switch ?

I guess I should have posted this in this forum instead of the general one.




Are a trim limit switch and trim gauge switch interchangeable? My limit switch went out, the gauge switch still works, and I don’t have time before my lake trip this weekend for a proper fix of removing the lower unit and am wondering if I can swap them out and just splice the wire for them together for the weekend. I'd prefer to have the limit switch working and just drive the boat off of feel. I’ll fix everything up correctly when time permits.

Why mess with it until you can install new ones. Use the trailer button to raise outdrive. You don't have to remove outdrive to replace. Use a 1/4 drive with a long extension. When you install but tape bolt in socket then tighten it back up. Nothing to it😄
