My Starcraft fishmaster with quicksilver merc 3000 controls seems loaded but would like to get the horn working.

Re: Wanting to hook up the start up warning sounder thingy

I'm thinking you mean the overheat alarm? If so, there is a sending unit in the block by the head, that has one wire comming out of it.<br />Normally, this wire is open.But if the engine overheats, the sending unit shorts this wire to ground, and the alarm goes off. Find the alarm (could be in the control, or under the helm dash. It will have two wires..One to the posative buss, and the other, (the negative lead), goes to that wire commin from the sending unit.
