***Found a couple posts using search for Merc 165 wiring, but they mostly covered OEM switch wiring, or did not match my OEM wiring diagram***
Bought a new switch to replace rusted out one and am having trouble equating terminals. I have attached a picture of the new switch "instructions" and OEM wiring diagram. On the OEM diagram, I do have the optional accessory fuse panel wired for lights, horn, etc (this is note 3 on the diagram). Would this accessory fuse panel be switched? I need it to be.
Otherwise, I just need to wire for key switch on = power to accessory fuse panel, and key switch position 2 to turn the starter motor. I think I've stared at these diagrams so long I'm so confused. I don't really trust the letter designations, I'd rather see what the terminals "do". Can anyone help?
I can't post the pictures - says I am not authorized, but here is the link to them in Google Photo: https://goo.gl/photos/7c1o4nCQJ9Qo2QFQ6
