function parts on control box

Hi,
I bought a second hand control box, a single handed grip for speed and gearing. There is also a separte handle in the cover that can be lifted to ingrease rpm whithout gearing. It all works super. There is no data on the control box so i do not know the manufactor. It's coloured in Johnson colours (white with black and red line) but i don't thinks is Johnson own made. It contains a red wire plug for engine and cables also fit well, so at least it's made for (a) Johnson.
Can i somehow place a picture here and see or someone knows anything about it?
Problem is that my engine starts well, but i cannot switch off the engine by turning the key. Problibly a wire not connecting?
There is also a plug mounted on the box with letters A,B and C. It this for the kill-switch? There is nothing in it, but as said, engine starts normally.
Also, in the inside, there's a little horn or something. What's its function?
Does anybody know what can be wrong why i can not shutdown engine by key? Hope to hear; thanks...........Raymond from The Netherlands

You can add an image by clicking the "Manage Attachments" below the typing box when you are posting a message. Just follow the size limits that popup when you click that button.

You can add a small picture here by attaching it as a thumbnail. The largest file would be in jpg format, around 97k. Use the paperclip to see the options. You can also use the insert image icon to attach a link to your own photo site for a larger picture.

There is a good set of wiring information at the following link; copy it to your browser without the quotation marks.

Horn is most likely over temp alarm

Re: function parts on control box

What you are describing is a Johnson control. The horn is for an overheat alarm. The plug is for a tachometer and/or feed for a gas gauge, etc.
