First of all I have already gained a wealth of knowledge by just reading your forums.
Second, I am new to inboards and stern drives. I have always had pontoons to scuba dive from.
I picked up a 1986 Baretta 4.3lt omc cobra with a morse throttle control and trim. I am redoing the interior and I noticed that I have wires hanging mid way of the boat from my trim control not connected. Can anyone tell me the colorcode and what they go to? Colors are R, W, BL, Gr, & Pu. The R & Pu are connected but also have another unconnected wire coming from each one. The White wire is not comected at all. Also, the throttle handle has switches on both sides of the handle. I know the front side, on my other boats, is the tilt up & down. I never had one on the backside.

Thanks

Usually the red,blue and green go to the trim switch in the control handle.Not sure of the other wires.All the controls i have owned only have the one button..
