    SmartCraft: Help needed!!

    Yes that’s what I thought. I have those things and it still won’t work. Unfortunately the cheaper option seems to be getting the secondary cable and J box.

    This is where I get confused. Reading this document it seems like I should be able to do what I’m trying to do. Which is use the 14 pin harness and the 10 pin connector on that harness to go to my gauge via a jumper instead of a junction box...

    SmartCraft: Help needed!!

    Okay I understand. So I cannot plug into that and expect my gauge to work. My engine has wheat appears to be a resistor in the cap on the plug for this new harness I need to order. Am I able to retain that and use it on the junction box I need instead of ordering an additional one or are they...

    84-896537A20 is the main engine harness. Has the key switch and all. It has one of the 10 pin plugs on it which I was under the impression was for a gauge like this.

    Okay last question. On the main engine harness it has a plug presumably for this application. Why am I unable to use it?

    Or are you saying I need to be using an additional harness off of the back of the engine and not use the connection on the 14 pin round main harness? In which case I would need that harness in the length I need and a jbox and another resistor

    Okay so according to that you are saying I need a junction box and a terminating resistor to put on the box. Then plug my instrument and its harness to the j box. Just trying to understand the system more, how does this make it work exactly? Is it the resistor that does it? I have a male to male...

    The gauge also came with its own harness part number on that is 84-8M0055076. It plugs into the instrument and has some other connections on it as well. It would not plug into the original engine harness however. So I got a male to male connector to go from the engine harness to the gauge...

    I need some help from someone with more knowledge about this system. I have purchased a new(ish) outboard. It’s a 2023 mercury 60 4 stroke. It has the 14 pin connection for the main harness on the engine. I was given a harness with ignition switch. The harness is not as new as the motor. I...
