    Default Need wiring diagram for inside 3 wire tilt motor 1987 Johnson 40Hpr

    Hi All

    I got a rebuild kit for the tilt /trim motor for a 197 Johnson 40hp I have.

    There is three wires that go into the Tilt Motor, Green, Blue and Black.

    I have a new cap that comes with brushes , the trouble is the old wires were broke/rotted off.

    There is a internal Black Wire that was still attached to the old cap , the other end of it is still attached and runs to the internal windings on the body of the motor

    There is a internal Green Wire that look like its hooked to the internal windings and then would leave the tilt motor via the green wire.

    There is a internal Blue wire that looks like its hooked to the internal windings and then leaves the tilt motorvia the blue wire, there is a bared part that looks like there may have been another wire attached to the blue, maybe used to run up to the cap(brushes)??

    Still leaves the External Black Wire , I wonder if it is supposed to be joined to the internal Black Wire?



    I think I need another wire to the brushes, it looks like maybe there was a internal wire that was tapped onto the internal blue wire that may have run up to the old brushes.

    I know the brushes need one positive and one negative to work.

    I just can't find a daigram anywhere for this.

    Thanks

    Paul
