What This Part is Used For

The ignition switch is the primary operator control for the engine starting and ignition circuits in the applicable Johnson and Evinrude remote-control systems.

BRP identifies 5005801 as an ignition switch with lanyard. The safety lanyard is part of the engine cut-off system and allows the ignition to be interrupted if the operator moves away from the helm.

The switch is installed in compatible Johnson / Evinrude control and electrical systems and provides the keyed starting function for the outboard.

Ignition Switch with Safety Lanyard

The OEM 5005801-style switch incorporates an engine cut-off safety lanyard as part of the control system.

The lanyard should be properly attached to the operator whenever the boat is underway. If the lanyard is pulled away from the control, the safety switch can interrupt engine operation.

Check the Safety Lanyard During Installation

After replacing the ignition switch, test the key operation and emergency engine cut-off function according to the appropriate Johnson / Evinrude service procedure.

Do not operate the boat if the engine cut-off function does not operate correctly.

Common Signs of an Ignition Switch Problem

  • Engine will not crank when the key is turned
  • Intermittent starter operation
  • Ignition cuts in and out when the key is moved
  • Loose or badly worn key operation
  • Corroded or damaged switch terminals
  • Damaged safety-lanyard switch function
  • Physical damage to the switch body
  • Water or corrosion damage inside the control box

Installation Tips

  • Disconnect battery power before servicing the ignition switch.
  • Verify the existing OEM switch number before removal.
  • Photograph or label the original wiring before disconnecting the switch.
  • Inspect connectors and terminals for corrosion or heat damage.
  • Route wiring so it cannot interfere with throttle or shift components.
  • Reconnect all wires according to the applicable Johnson / Evinrude wiring diagram.
  • Verify normal key operation before operating the boat.
  • Test the engine cut-off safety lanyard after installation.
