Hi JB'rs
I have a 2013 AR240. As the post states, my starboard gate is stuck in the full forward position, throttle works fine, no reverse or neutral due to position of gate. Any thoughts?

thanks
Rick

disconnect the cable from the bucket if you can and see if it moves. If you're in the water and can't do that, check for rocks or debris that may be jammed in there not allowing it to move.

nothing jammed in bucket, throttle works great, just no reverse now. I’m thinking I broke something with the reverse gate cable

I found a post that might help you but for some reason I am unable to copy and paste the link. Try going to the search tool and type in”dismantle throttle”. Some threads pop up and look for the one titled: Throttle Cable-Please Help
