Hi Boaters,
So lately i have been harassing all you guys about tacho issues, my blown power pack on my 87 140 Looper (from Hell).
Well today I have found the culprit but don't know how to solve or fix why it's happening.
I'm getting 12v earthing via accessories. The charge goes away when off.
See photo attached.
The following reading are:
1.12v via black/tan stripe. (Manual says from Control) Wire terminates to the ground terminal.
2. 12 Via trim send black wire from gauge? Wire terminates to the ground terminal.
3. The ground was terminated to the blue wire from motor trim button, and wasn't even bolted to engine.
4. Three red wires terminate to the positive of the relay top screw. Manual only shows two going to it.
There all stripped wires hanging out of the conduits. Total butchers job who last work on it.
I would really like any ones help on this as it has blown my digital gauges and a power pack.
Where do I start from? All the termination look good on the gauges, the analogue gauges are working.
I'm trying to sell this thing but it's curse keeps pulling me back in.
Can any one provide a detailed diagram of the 87 Loopers? I only have the 88 manual which is different i believe.
Any advice would be a big help guys.
Thanks.
Riley
