In the picture attached which shows the wiring that goes from the motor to the controls
on a 1987 Johnson 30HP electric start

The big Red wire is of course Positive
The Yellow/Red wire goes to the solenoid for starting
The Purple/White wire goes to the Primer
The 2 Black wires are for the Kill Switch

Name the uses for the Purple, Grey and Tan wires.
You may, if you like, put your answer in the form of a question.
