This is the main harness connector from my AQ125A/270. I would like to ID the 7 pins used in this connector and what each one goes to. Pins 1-2-3-5-6-7-8 are the only ones used. I pulled back the boot covering the canon plug and I see there are some pins with two wires connected. I'm getting ready to run the engine on a stand and it would be nice to be able to use bayonets to plug into this canon plug to connect a gauge set. Otherwise I'll just go direct to the senders. I have searched the manual but all I find is color coding of the wires and not what each pin connects to.

Thanks, Bill

Did any of the manuals show a schematic diagram? If so you could cross reference between the wire colors and their usage in the schematic diagram... Just a thought!

Manuals show color coding but as of yet I have not found this connector and any wiring ID.

Have you looked at a parts break down of your engine. Research your engine model number on here and see if they offer any part numbers for your needs. They did for my OB engine. Of course mine were obsolete being how it was a 1976 model. But the part numbers allowed me to further research what I needed anyway. Just a thought.

Here is a link to the manual (AQ125A) which on page 52 has a diagram, but not a very good one, and uses letters not numbers
