1997 Merc tracker 25 HP

[mongo36]

Tested between trigger leads (brown/yellow & brown/white)
resistance (ohms) I got 627, is that bad enought to cause this?

I can only say it is below what is suggested. Electrical is funny but has to be exact.
When I had this problem I was overwhelmed as you are but I wanted it fixed & wanted to do it myself.
The only other choice you have is bring it to a shop.It does become frustrating.
Check to see what it cost for a trigger.
Do you have a way to pull flywheel?Steering wheel puller is what I used but don't hit the puller to make it pop off,that is a no no.I used a impact driver which made it easier to hold flywheel from spinning.

They appear to be about $50, I do have a gear puller, and an electric impact. I just hate to think if this isn't the problem, I have wasted time. I would really like to use it this weekend.

I just looked at selocmarine.com they say the OHM reading tfor the trigger is 1200-1400, if thats the case I am way below that.
