I have a 1993 Chris Craft Concept 217 BR with a 5.0 L OMC Cobra EFI MPI. I replaced all the original guages with some Faria guages I got on E-Bay. The set of Faria guages had a Voltmeter Guage and the Original guages had a Ammeter Guage. I installed the voltmeter guage where the ammeter guage use to be... I moved the ammeter guage to the side panel where I mounted the depthfinder/water temp guage... Unfortunately it was a while back when I did this and I had the boat sit a while in my garage while I completed a lengthy transom repair... I know some have siad you don't need the ammeter guage, but I already have mounted it and am trying to figure out what wires originally went to the Chris Craft guage. I think I have found the right set of wires, but was wondering if anyone may have an idea of what color wires went to this guage... The wires I think were connected are a yellow with red stripe and purple... There is also a blue (for the light in the guage) and ground... Is there a way of testing it with a multimeter before connecting it? The yellow with red stripe is a fairly heavy guage wire, but the purple isn't that heavy of a guage... Any ideas?
