    I have a 1977 115hp Johnson O/B and what I have as far as the wiring goes isn't much, mine has a solenoid that is used for the tilt/trim, with that said here is what I have. I'm sure someone with better knowledge will post a better idea. Hope this helps, good luck

    Wires on tilt/trim solenoid: Trim wire locations
    The blue & green wires should be going to the SMALL posts on the trim solenoid.

    Switch wiring
    Green/white stripe to top terminal (up)
    Red/white stripe to center switch terminal (Battery)
    Blue/white stripe to bottom of switch terminal (down)

    Check out the second sticky at the top of the forum. There are two different wiring diagrams for the 2 wire PTT.
