12/24 Trolling Mtr wiring

[j2jdoug]

I have A 1996 Cobra bass boat with a three bank charger. Want to make sure I have the trolling batteries hooked up correctly for 12/24 operation. 12/24 toggle switch is located on the foot pedal of my Johnson BFL4TS trolling motor. I have six wires coming out of the hull to the two deep cycle batteries. Red, Orange/red, black, black with purple stripping, The other two blacks have a small red and black coming out of each wire, assume these should go to each battery for charging?

Also want to make sure I have the wiring connected correctly in the head of the trolling motor. I had to replace the plastic gear in the top of the trolling motor and not sure if I have it wired back correctly. Picture of wiring diagram would be helpful.

Thanks ahead for any help, J2J
