I posted this originally in the Evinrude area because I'm redoing all the wiring, but I bought this with the ignition key cut, as he had kept his ignition switch for his new motor.
I went to marina and purchased an ignition switch. I was doing some guessing with the choke, and they weren't a lot of help. In any case, I'm hoping you guys can get me straightened out on what wires go where.
There's 10 wires coming forward from the engine. 3 of the wires, which I will indicate, go to the Selectric Controls.
Red-Controls
Blue-Controls
Small Green (14 gage)-Controls
Dark Green (12 gage)
White
Black
Gray
Red with gray stripe
Brown
Red with white stripe
The ignition switch is a Sierra Marine Push to Choke, On-Off-Start switch with the S/N MP39760. It's a 6 post switch, and the posts are notated as follows:
A
B
C
M
M
S
Any help with what goes where? This also leaves me one extra wire unaccounted for. Does that go to a seperate gage at the dash? There isn't a tilt/trim with this motor, so I thought maybe it was to an RPM gage, but I don't even know at this point what wire that'll be. We'll get it all down eventually.
