    2016 Yamaha F4 Rectifier Wiring

    Yeah no........Think the live pin are(is) alive with AC just not the AC you want that will provide 6 Amps to charge a Batt with

    2016 Yamaha F4 Rectifier Wiring

    Oh good.........0 ohm on dead pins is good!! Most likely is then the charge coil......Thinking there is AC there, it's just the type of wave form your meter probably couldn't quite capture. Yes, hook the rectifier's green wires to the two dead pins and the rectifier's red wire to battery's...

    2016 Yamaha F4 Rectifier Wiring

    No....Forget about the other two wires/pins...The "Kill switch and ground wires/pins" I'm pretty those have NOTHING to do with and ARE NOT your 6A charge wire outputs. I'm referring to the "two dead pins" and am asking to measure resistance across those. If it's 0'ish ohms between the two, I...

    2016 Yamaha F4 Rectifier Wiring

    "just cranked it up and yes, 0 ohms"??? No.......ALWAYS measure resistance (Ohms) with all power off/disconnected, motor off, key off. HOWEVER I will assume the coil is good and your previous AC measurements when running are suspect.....SO, Hook the two green wires/pins to the "AC" pins (~)...

    2016 Yamaha F4 Rectifier Wiring

    The "other two pins that are dead"............Did (or can) you use you meter to measure any resistance across the two wires? If it's a/the charge coil, the measurement should be 0'ish ohms.........

    Early 90 hp Yamaha tachometer wiring diagram

    Shot gunning where the wires might go is risky, might have fired something already by reversing polarity and such ..........Can you open the unit up (spin off a few nuts) and take some decent pics of the insides?, e.g., wiring points, printed circuit board, trace side, component side and such?

    Do I need diodes or should I run a relay for trim switch

    You're quite welcome, let us know how she works when it's up and running?

    Do I need diodes or should I run a relay for trim switch

    These are already sealed and will run inductive loads fine........P & B are good quality and will last a life time. Datasheet Download

    Do I need diodes or should I run a relay for trim switch

    That trim switch looks to be a lower current type that is basically designed to drive trim relays, don't think I'd drive the pump directly with it..... So yes, use a relay set up with that type of switch. If it were me, I'd drop using *diodes all together and just use two DPDT's, one (or two)...

    Do I need diodes or should I run a relay for trim switch

    ***So, yes sure, you can use solenoids and wire*** Correction........"So, yes sure, you can use RELAYS and wire....." Also ***The switch should equal to the pump or be greater I reckon*** Addition......"The switch AND THE TWO DIODES/wires should equal to the pump or be greater I reckon........"

    Do I need diodes or should I run a relay for trim switch

    Guessing the pump type is similar to or is a Bennett type pump? e.g., The red and green wires go to the hydraulic valve solenoids on the motor's front and both the blue and yellow wires go to the motor drive windings? So, yes sure, you can use solenoids and wire it such that your push button...

    No voltage regulator on older Mercury. Can I add one?

    With good batt, good connections and the like, Isn't the normal spec on most, if not all non-reg'd at high rev's, can normally be as high as +16.5V? Non-reg'd (rec only) batt charge systems that use the battery as the regulation unnecessarily and continually charge even a fully charged battery...

    No voltage regulator on older Mercury. Can I add one?

    Yup.....Nothing special needed. Even if you have 1 amp, 9 amps or 16 or 20 amps, green, blue, red or pink, or whatever stator, the standard stock (or replacement 3 party) Merc 20 amp rec/reg will work just fine and live just ducky in your engine compartment!!. The two (or 4, 2 pair) wire...

    My understanding of the steering control is as jhandle mentioned.............The two wires just get their polarity reversed BUT at what voltage? Not sure but if by design when the steering motors turns and it isn't a variable speed type then most likey, as jhandle mentioned, it just is 12V (and...

    Looks like a ground wire.

    @Cvhsquared "It appears that it was connected to the back of the cylinder head. Any concern with this?" A bonding wire is a grounded wire but doesn't/shouldn't carry ANY current....More or less then just a point to point open ended non-current carrying wire used to ground metal objects such as...
