    09 Stratos 200XL key switch

    I have a 200XL w/ 225 evinrude HO. looking at changing the key switch. Possibly turning my boat off randomly at times. Anyone come cross this issue before, and know which switch to buy?

    Something to consider may be the ignitionswitch throwing those codes. Evinrude identified ignitionswitch problems back in Sept 2016 and issued a TS bulletin where rigging kits and ignition switches were redesigned for enhanced durability, quality and reliability. Old switch 766554 was replaced with 768746.

    I had this same problem before. Not in my current boat, but previously. It was the kill switch. I'd be sure to check that to.
