Zero Effort Controls
I have dual zero effort controls with single trim control. Does anyone know if I can can change the single trim control to a dual trim control and can I move the trim switch to the other side of the handle? I have dual controls on the dash and the wiring is not a problem.
Thanks

Yes you can.
Obviously you will need to run another set of wires to the dash switch from the second throttle lever switch. You can buy the dual switch.
If you also have a single switch on the dash that operates both tabs/drives simutaniously, you will need to retain the diodes. If no common dash switch, remove the diodes. You should currently have 2 diodes, ......1 for up, 1 for down.
My Kiek...... controls have a decal/emblem on opposite side of lever that is held in by double sided tape. remove the emblem and should have access to the switch mounting screws. flip flop the assembly. Tight work area to solder if needed though.
