It starts up fine but it won't go into gear. Forward or reverse doesn't work.

The best way to find out if the cable is busted it to remove the cowling, push forward on the throttle and see if it engages the shaft that tells the engine to go forward or reserve(circled in red). If I remember correctly once the shaft engages the engine another cable will take over and control the speed.

My friend's husband is an honest and good boat mechanic. If you like I can send you his number tomorrow.

This is great. I didn't think I would get this great of a response. Awesome! I have taken the cover off and there's been a neighbor and a man at the boat wash station that have taught me a couple of thing. I took out the drew at the bottom of the prop assembly and the magnet has metal clippings. I'm definitely gonna take ur advice on this. BWE is great!!
