Welcome to Iboats, McCoy!<br /><br />Post your model number to confirm, but at power it blows out an ignition coil.<br /><br />The black and black and white one should ultimately run up under the flywheel. These are connected together to kill spark and stop the motor. Separate them and you get spark and a running motor. The ignition system has nothing to do with the +12v system.<br /><br />Tell us what you find!
