Wiring schematic for Evinrude 40 - no spark

[higgs]

Hey guys.

Not getting a spark on my evinrude 40hp. Could use a schematic so I can locate the kill wire, etc. to try bypassing that to start troubleshooting.

Any help or photos would be appreciated.

Thanks
Chris

need to know the model number or year to make sure. Changes were made over the years.

It's a 1992 Evinrude Tracker 40hp.

If it has "normal" colors, the kill wire is black with a yellow stripe.

Where would I locate that wire? Do I just disconnect it? the only one I saw that color would have needed to be cut to disconnect I believe, as I could not locate where it connected to on either end.
