Evinrude power cuttoff

[Jeb1971]

Asked this on another board, but wanted to try on here too.

Have a 1985 evinrude v6. Regarding this motor, how can I build a circut that the motor will send 12 volts when the motor is running, then cut the voltage when the motor turns off?

I was thinking about the main charge wire off the alternator runing to a relay which governed 12v from the battery, but was concerned about the spuraticness of the ac output.

exactly what are you trying to accomplish?

Re: Evinrude power cuttoff

Let me rephrase(?) that question in a way not as confusing and obscure.

I am looing for a way to construct a circut that will close a connection when the motor is not running and open it when the motor is running. A circut independent of the key switch wiring.

There really is no 12 volt circut on that engine that will accomplish what you are asking. It could be done on the AC side of the charging circut. other wise the only other circut that I am aware of is the purple wire but it is a keyed power circut and not a engine powered circut

What is the circuit load?

"I am looking for a way to construct a circut that will close a connection when the motor is not running and open it when the motor is running. A circut independent of the key switch wiring"

These are you quotes , which one do you need circuit to do??

Re: Evinrude power cuttoff

Well, I just re-read a previous post of mine where I was trying to 'simplify' my question and noticed I left out one crucial word. The word was "not"..

I am looking for help to build a circut that will open a connection when the motor is "not" running and close the connection when the engine is running.

The load is not important as the connection will be used to run a relay which will handle load.

I think we are all a liitle curious. what are you building?
