What year is the motor? What year are the controls? There was a wiring change in 1996. There are adaptors to hook up any combination. IE; 1996 and newer motor to 1995 and older boat harness and vise versa.
not sure about the year but the engine has a round red plug for which i have the plug and harness the controls are the new type but i was going to chop the plugs and conect them just need to know where all the wires go this is my first boat many thanks.
Yours is 1995 or older. The model number will tell the year. <br /><br />I think what youre saying is that you have the 1995 & older harness but a 1996 & up control box. I really hate to see the harness cut up but all you have to do is match the color codes. You'll be way ahead, money-wise, by getting an OE manual with the wiring diagrams in it.
most of the colors match up but a few dont do all the wires from the red plug go to the control box or do some go to other places sorry dont know to much about this i am a car mechanic and just starting on boats thanks for the help.
