Post 37 EFI GTR- Falling out of gear
I have been having an issue recently where the motor will slip out of forward into neutral while running or when hitting a log. Has anyone else had this issue and is the fix just to change the F-N-R switch assuming it is bad? I have a new switch headed my way but wondered if there was something else I should look into.

Lots do this. Supposedly there is another switch available that doesn't do that.. I've yet to really look into it unfortunately

$9k-$10k for a motor and you cant even get a good $5 toggle switch? :lol:

A toggle cannot handle the load. If you use a toggle you need to wire in two relays to reverse polarity to get the motor to work in bot directions. Hence the single less complicated switch.
