583690 – Trim Limit Switch – OMC / Johnson / Evinrude

The 583690 trim limit switch is a genuine OEM trim sender for OMC, Johnson, and Evinrude power trim and tilt systems. This switch helps your trim gauge or indicator register trim position. As a result, you get better feedback on tilt angle when you adjust the motor.

First, this trim limit switch senses trim movement. Then, it sends a signal to your engine’s instruments. Because it mounts directly on the trim assembly linkage, it tracks travel and lets your dash display accurate trim data. Also, it works with both outboards and sterndrives that use this OMC series of switches.

Many boat owners replace this part when their trim displays stop reading correctly. Likewise, mechanics install a new switch during trim system rebuilds. When the 583690 trim limit switch works well, you see reliable trim readings at all times. Also, the switch helps your power trim functions feel smoother and more predictable.

However, worn switches may give false readings or fail altogether. If you notice erratic gauge behavior, noisy trim relays, or poor tilt control, then this part often solves the problem. Therefore, check this switch when troubleshooting trim system faults.

Moreover, this unit uses quality wiring and connectors. Thus, it resists vibration and marine exposure over long use. Be sure to match it with your engine’s wiring diagram for correct installation.

Finally, this switch pairs with other trim system parts like hydraulic pumps, relays, and limit cams. Together, these components help your trim and tilt system respond accurately and reliably.
