I have purchased a 1996 Mercury 150XR6 outboard with no controls. I then bought a used Mercury Control Box (RC 881170A13), which shows a manufacture date of 07/13/05. Control box has a 14 pin male plug and another purple female adapter. Motor has a 8 pin female plug. I have establisted I will need a Mercury Harness adapter (14pin female to 8pin male). Mercury told me I needed adapter 84-896539T01, which has two of the 14 female pins deleted. I have found another harness (part number U/K), and it has all 14 female pins intact. Does anyone know why the two pins are deleted and which harness should I go with?
