Recently bought boat and noticed this wiring harness is not connected to anything and not terminated. Anyone know what the harness is for? I’ve poured though the wiring diagrams but cannot find a 6 pin harness with 5 wires. Boat runs great. I am not getting any engine info on the Veethree tach with digital display. I get fuel, water temp but no oil pressure etc. could this wire harness be related?

Could be. Have you looked in the near proximity for another harness connection that would mate with this?

Wire colors shown could indicate a possible association with the trim system but if the trim is fully operational then discount that possibility

Check your wiring diagram again for specific wire colors, diagrams don't always correlate for proper harness connectors
