Skicommand neutral lock broken

[Txi01]

I have a 2012 Txi with a 6litre 410hp motor. My throttle control is the ZF marine electronics ski command Which now won’t lock into neutral. Has anyone tried to fix or pull the lever assembly apart. This one is under 2 years old.

I've taken one apart for parts before.  There is a rod/spring/c clip that the shift button moves.  Possible that one of them has an issue.  It is a pretty big pain to disassemble, but better than paying $600 for a new one

Thanks for the info. I will pull it apart and see what’s going on.

Be careful when you revove the shift button.  It has 2 tabs that must be pressed in carefully to release it without breaking them.  A super thin piece of plastic like what a flexible cutting board is made of was the easiest thing to slide between button perimeter and knob body.
