Author	Topic:   Johnson 2001 150 - frozen in reverse
MoBoater	posted 07-06-2008 05:20 PM ET (US)         I have a Johnson 150hp (2001) motor that - after a day of operating just fine - froze into reverse. The prop spins all the time (in reverse only) and the prop is never freewheeling even when the motor is off. The control cables seem to be moving linkages when I shift them, but I have not had any of the case off yet. Could it be something simple - or a whole lower unit problem?
