Hi,
I have a Yamaha 9.9, (1995?) F9.9 AEM 6G8 UL 787186 Y
It starts and runs fine, but doesn't switch off. I have to disconnect the fuel supply to turn it off. I suspected the remote switch and tested it according to the manual:
The old switch didn't operate as specified above so I bought a brand new one.
Same problem! The engine still won't switch off!
I ran the above test on the new switch:
4.
A. Continuity!
B. No continuity!
5. Correct readings.
6.
A. No continuity!
B. No continuity on the On position, continuity on the START position.
Have I been sold a duff switch? (I really hope not! It took two months and the threat of legal action to get my supplier to finally post the thing!). The switch was clearly brand new.

4. Connect the ohmmeter between the black and whites which terminals. (Figure 46).
5. Next, connect the ohmmeter between the yellow and red terminals (figure 47).
6. Connect the ohmmeter between the brown and red switch terminals (figure 48).
7. Replace the ignition switch if it fails to operate as specified.
A. With the switch OFF the meter should read no continuity.
B. With the switch ON or in the START position, the meter should indicate continuity.
5. Next, connect the ohmmeter between the yellow and red terminals (figure 47).
A. With the switch off the meter should read no continuity.
B. With the switch on or in the start position, the meter should indicate continuity.
6. Connect the ohmmeter between the brown and red switch terminals (figure 48).
A. With the switch OFF the meter should read continuity.
B. Place the switch in the ON position, note the meter, then turn the switch to OFF. The meter should indicate no continuity in both positions.
7. Replace the ignition switch if it fails to operate as specified.
