Re: 1976 srv 240

I haven't located anything. I've got everything working on the boat but I just want to confirm that I have everything wired correctly. Mainly at the dash. Any ideas?

Yes dash wiring is what I'm looking for. I looked through the link but mine is an OMC 235

Re: 1976 srv 240

Thanks again! I checked but didn't find what I'm looking for. At the dash I have 10 fuse holders and 8 toggle switches. I have replaced the fuse holders and have it hooked up. Everything works but I do not know the correct size fuse to use. Currently all 30amp. There has to be a diagram or chart showing the layout. Thank you a lot for your help!!

Fuses are sized to protect the wiring, not the device. Since your branch circuits are probably 16 gauge, use 10 amp fuses, max. If you have a high powered audio amp or other high-draw accessory, it should be wired directly to a battery (or the battery switch) with wiring and fuse sized accordingly.

If they all work with a 30 amp fuse going to a lower amp fuse won't matter? The first fuse is wired directly to the 'switch/ battery' and then jumpers go to the next fuse.
