I was reading some posts on electrical problems. One post said if you got your battery cables switched around you could blow the rectifier. What is it?
So my brother is off the hook and did not blow anything up on this unit?
I do not believe this motor charges the battery It is a 59 johnson with electric start. It has lights and i think an electric choke. This is an old motor with very few extras. So I do not think this is an issue with my situation. My brother did get the cables switched around once but that has been corrected.
Thanks for info I will let my brother off the hook.
You could let him sweat for a while, just for the entertainment.
