Everything you need to instal control cables



This works very well to connect the throttle and forward-neutral-reverse to remote cables. Does not include wires or connections for start, stop and tilt functions. No instructions, but I used engine manual and had few problems.manual.

That's not the issue I have .

The honda outboard has a tiller handle and no connections to connect the cables to .
I have bought the kit to remove he tiller handle andfit the parts to connect the Morse cables the kit is complete but contains no instructions .There seems to be no instructions online or pictures.
I actually think I have fathomed the components but not sure yet .
The remote handle and cables are easy to understand .
Thank you.
This is the part kit no instructions come with it nor even a picture of it installed. Honda BF15D/BF20D Tiller Handle to Remote Control Conversion Kit 06532-ZY0-000HE | eBay

Did you find any guidance. I am considering adding remote throttle and gear shift to my bf20d.

Did you manage to get the kit fitted. I did.

How did you do? Would you reccomed doing it? I'm about to attempt this procedure and it seems daunting.

Yes I have successfully fitted the kit and kept the tiller, but disconnected the throttle cable.
I now have starter and kill switch both at the front and back of the boat. Remote and steering up front
I have also fitted a copy after market yamaha 25hp power trim and tilt too. Including a relay. The original Honda bf20 doesn't have a trim function, only tilt, whereas mine has both and I can trim while underway.
I can share all this info if required.
I'm not sure if I can add my email address but I'll give it a go, so I can send you the pictures etc

I sent you an email.

Not sure if this helps anyone but i found this youtube video kind of detailing the conversion.

Yep, the YouTube video is similar to what I did. The kit is pretty good and easy to fit. I opted to keep the tiller on, but just disconnect it's throttle cable, I bought a steering cable bracket too.
I bought a copy remote off AliExpress too, which has the wiring loom, power trim buttons and also has a trawling button too, but can't be used on the carb version engines, so probably 40 hp upwards

My engine is the bf20 with tiller, electric start, but only had the assist ram for the tilt. Obviously the Honda is only an power tilt, so can only be used at idle to lower and lift the engine, but I really wanted a power tilt and trim, so I can trim the engine at speed, so I bought an aftermarket copy yamaha power trim and tilt motor, suitable for 25 to 50hp, off AliExpress and with a bit of engineering, I widened the tilt bracket, added a bush, had a new longer bottom pin made, reamed a bit of casing away and fitted a trim relay, also off AliExpress and hooked it all up, like in the YouTube video, I just inserted the pin connectors into the side of the existing bullets and taped them in.
I am happy to send pictures if required.
