I have a old style Yamaha outboard tach I bought recently and need help with the wiring. I've searched my manual and the net without much success.
On the back of the gauge are 4 terminal posts labelled 12,B,6 and G.
12 is unconnected
2 black wires connect to B, one is cut (I assume it runs off to supplementary gauges and is unnecessary?) There is a terminal bridge from B to 6. I think this is for 6 pole, which I assume to be correct for a 60hp (6H2 60FEO), as normally is for 40 to 70hp.
2 green wires connect to G, one has a female connection and I've assumed it's supplemental, as above.
1 yellow, 1 green and 1 black come from the tacho in a loom that connects to the yellow, green and black loom hanging off the back of the Yamaha 703 remotes.
However I also have a yellow wire with a 10A inline fuse, that has been cut at the tacho end. I assume this is the ignition feed, but cannot find a wiring diagram that shows me where it goes, or to what terminal it attaches on the tacho?
