Re: kill switch question

Some later engines had a kill switch mounted right in the control box below the key.

At any rate, the blue and the white wires attached to the "M" terminals on the ignition switch are the stop circuit.

Buy a kill switch that is "open" with the lanyard attached and "closed" when man overboard. I think this is standard.

Mount it anywhere you want and wire it in parallel to the blue and white wires. That is, One lead to the "M" terminal with the blue wire and the second lead to the "M" terminal with the white. Simple.
