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.

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.

Pro Marine 4519P SHOWA Tilt & Trim Seal Kit

Looking for a lower-cost alternative to the OEM seal kit? The Pro Marine 4519P is the Pro Marine replacement option for these SHOWA tilt and trim applications.

It is a convenient choice when rebuilding a leaking hydraulic trim / tilt unit while retaining the original SHOWA assembly.

View Pro Marine 4519P SHOWA Seal Kit

What This Part is Used For

The power trim and tilt assembly uses hydraulic pressure to raise, lower, trim, and tilt the outboard. Internal O-rings and hydraulic seals keep trim fluid contained while allowing the pistons and rods to move under pressure.

As these seals age, they can harden, flatten, tear, or become damaged. Common symptoms include hydraulic fluid leaking around the trim or tilt cylinders, the engine slowly settling down after being trimmed up, difficulty holding trim position, or fluid contamination around the hydraulic unit.

This seal kit is intended for servicing compatible SHOWA power trim and tilt assemblies. Inspect cylinder rods, gland surfaces, pistons, bores, and hydraulic fluid condition during the repair because damaged hard parts can cause a new seal to leak again.

Common Signs Your Trim & Tilt Unit Needs Service

• Hydraulic fluid leaking around the tilt or trim cylinder rods
• Outboard slowly drops after being trimmed or tilted up
• Trim system will not hold the selected position
• Visible damaged, hardened, or deteriorated rod seals
• Repeated need to add trim / tilt fluid
• Fluid visible around the SHOWA hydraulic assembly

• Designed for compatible SHOWA hydraulic trim and tilt assemblies
• OEM part number 434519
• Cross references 0434519, 0778218, and 778218
