Ok, so I'm quite stumped here. I've just finished wiring up my boat and I'm guessing I did something wrong. When my red battery cable is hooked up to my engine and my battery, the small gear on my starter motor spins, even when the ignition is off. Also, it appears to be spinning the wrong way because it spins opposite of the way it spins manually. Right now I have my trim harness grounded and I believe that is what is grounding the engine and allowing it to spin even when the black battery cable is not hooked up. Any ideas on what I did wrong/ what I need to do to get the motor to start? Thanks a lot, I know this is kind of confusing so if I can try to provide you with more specific information if you ask.
