Hi everyone. Im trying to get my trusted Johnson 50 to start. I think I have narrowed it down to the kill switch circuit, and Im trying to work my way down the CDI trouble shooting guide step by step. The first step is:
1. Disconnect the Black/Yellow stop wire AT THE POWER PACK and retest. If the engine’s ignition has spark, the stop circuit has a fault. Check the key switch, harness and shift switch.
Two questions:
* Disconnect styp wire "AT THE POWER PACK": How would I do this? All cables just go directly into the pack, and there is no way to disconnect the Black/Yellow cable. Should I disconnect the cable from the harness plug (where it ends up). Or something else?
* Check the key switch, harness and shift switch: trying to figure out what the "shift switch" is, and where to find it on my outboard. Any hints?
Thanks!
