    DTS Shift issues - Can't reverse Starboard Engine

    Quick update, I switched the switches between the port and starboard engine, I went our last night, and did not have a single issue or error on the screen. I'm still scheduled to go out on Saturday, but after 1 day test, looking good (knock on wood). My challenge is the logistics of the mechanic...

    DTS Shift issues - Can't reverse Starboard Engine

    Before paying anything, i was going to switch the switches and see the problem follows (doubt it). I'm trying to coordinate mechanic and haul out schedule in the meantime, I'm suspecting a cable issue. It's not suspecting clutch because I'm not facing the symptoms stated in one of the posts above.

    DTS Shift issues - Can't reverse Starboard Engine

    FWIW, I picked up the switch yesterday to install, as getting on the boat I tripped and filled in the water!!!! The switch was in a bag and the bag floated, the phone was still in my pocket, but I lost my glasses. So, I ended up Not doing anything as the bag that housed the switch had a couple...

    DTS Shift issues - Can't reverse Starboard Engine

    Great feedback, this is NOT my case at all. I can switch to Forward with no issues and then to neutral with no issues. intermittently, every other time I switch to reverse, I get the shift error. The puzzling part is sometimes it does shift into reverse, and I still get the error, and sometimes...

    DTS Shift issues - Can't reverse Starboard Engine

    I spoke to a couple of mechanics, and both suggested something electric. One of the suggestions was to replace the electric switch to eliminate one more thing. It's only $50 so I will try that today. With July 4th weekend and everyone is busy, I'm planning on this next week.

    DTS Shift issues - Can't reverse Starboard Engine

    Thank you for the quick response, where is the clutch? I looked at the parts manual and cant find it (I'm not mechanical more on the electrical side). What you are describing sounds exactly what I'm facing.

    DTS Shift issues - Can't reverse Starboard Engine

    Hi all, thank you for your contributions. I opened the hatch as suggested, compared both Starboard and port, and both shifted fine. videos are below. Although, i still got the error on the VesselView (only on the VV403 NOT on the VVmobile app), then the error disappeared. We decided to go out...

    DTS Shift issues - Can't reverse Starboard Engine

    This is DTS, how do I troubleshoot before taking the boat out of the water as it is a big task! If the cable to the drive was damaged, why would it shift to Forward and Nuetral with no errors?

    DTS Shift issues - Can't reverse Starboard Engine

    When I launched the boat, I had a flag stuck between the outdrives and the starboard engine was stuck up. Shut everything down and restarted and all started working well. Since this, i have had intermittent issues when I shift the starboard into reverse, it does not shift. Last night, i can...
