hello i need some help figuring out how to hook up my analog trim guage to my previous digital guaged 290sp outdrive . my digital guage is part #828731 yz . if this helps . i have an analog trim guage from teleflex with the standard 3 wire conection on the back. i just purchased a new trim sending unit POTENTIOMETER part #873531 . and ive aquired a black digital to analog box part #873226. coming of the box are three wires purple,black,yellow that look like they plug into the back of the analog guage . however the input into the black box is a bit of a mystery it has 8 wires- brown, white,red with white stripe,white with black stripe,green with white stripe,black,blue with red stripe,and lavender ,there are also little numbers on the white plug these are housed in above were the wires exit. ok ive tried to paint a picture here . and my potentiometer only has 3 wires coming from it . how can i make this set up work .going from a digital guage to a analog guage . the owners manual that comes with the black box just describes how to fine tune it once it is hooked up
