There is a difference. Wires/purposes are not the same.

Red plug on motor requires red plug on controls.----Yellow plug on motor requires yellow plug on controls.-----Black round plug on motor requires black round plug on controls.

Exactly. As one example, the red plug does not have wires for electric shift. Yellow plug is for electric shift and Mag CD ignition, a combination only used on a couple of models.
