Anyone have any clue which wires get hooked to what on a ignition switch with push to choke? The boat was missing the ignition switch in the controll box and I'm banging my head against the wall trying to track wires.

An '89 will have the newer wire colors. Red (battery) to B; Black (ground) to M. Black/yellow (ign killer) to the other M terminal. Yellow/black (choke solenoid) to C. Yellow/red (starter solenoid) to S. Purple (ign Acc) to A. Grey is tach signal. Tan is overheat alarm or gauge (Temp alarm is on one cylinder head. Gauge is either on other cylinder head or is optional).
