Installation Guide

1. Disconnect the battery: Turn off the engine and disconnect the negative (black) battery terminal to prevent electrical shock.
2. Locate the existing relay: Find the tilt trim relay on your Johnson/Evinrude outboard, typically mounted near the engine's electrical panel or trim motor assembly.
3. Remove the old relay: Disconnect both connector plugs and unscrew the battery eyelet connections (red positive and black ground).
4. Inspect wiring: Check all wire terminals and connectors for corrosion or damage; clean or replace if necessary.
5. Install the new relay: Connect Plug #1 (large green and blue wires) and Plug #2 (small green and blue wires) to their respective harness connectors.
6. Attach battery leads: Secure the red positive wire eyelet to the battery positive terminal and the black ground wire eyelet to the engine ground or negative terminal.
7. Verify connections: Ensure all plugs are firmly seated and eyelets are tightly fastened to prevent loose connections.
8. Reconnect the battery: Reattach the negative battery terminal.
9. Test tilt/trim function: Start the engine and operate the tilt/trim switch to confirm the motor raises and lowers smoothly.
10. Check for unusual sounds: Listen for clicking from the relay during operation; a consistent click indicates proper function.
11. Secure the relay: If your original relay was bracket-mounted, ensure the new relay is secured to prevent vibration damage.
12. Final inspection: Turn off the engine and visually confirm no loose wires or exposed connections remain.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this relay fits my Johnson/Evinrude engine?
A: Check the Compatible Engine Models table above for your engine's HP rating and model year. You can also verify your original relay matches the part number 0586767 or cross-reference numbers listed (ARCO R767, ARROWHEAD TRM6001). If your model year and HP match the table, this relay should fit.

Q: My tilt/trim motor runs but doesn't move—could this relay be the issue?
A: Possibly, but the relay typically controls power delivery, not mechanical function. If you hear a clicking sound when pressing the tilt/trim switch, the relay is likely working and the issue may be hydraulic (fluid, valves, or motor). If there's no click, the relay may be faulty.

Q: What are the signs that my tilt trim relay needs replacement?
A: Common symptoms include no response when pressing the tilt/trim switch, intermittent operation, a burnt smell near the relay, or visible corrosion/damage on the relay housing or connectors. If the relay doesn't click when activated, it has likely failed.

Q: How does this aftermarket relay compare to the original OMC part?
A: This relay is built to OEM specifications with comparable materials and designed as a direct replacement for OMC 0586767. It offers the same voltage rating (12V), connector configuration, and dimensions as the original, ensuring proper fit and function at a more competitive price point.

Q: Can I install this relay myself or do I need a mechanic?
A: If you're comfortable working with marine electrical systems and can safely disconnect your battery, installation is straightforward—simply unplug the old relay and plug in the new one, then reattach battery leads. However, if you're unsure about electrical work, we recommend professional installation to ensure safety.
