chrysler model number 1159h8b ignition switch diagram

[josdmcco86]

Hello all,

I have an older chrysler outboard and my ignition switch went out. I bought a new one but have forgotten where each wire hooks up to on the switch. Can someone please help. I am lost. Let me know what information you need and I will get it. Thank you in advance for your help!

Josh

Heat
Tachometer
Start
Ignition
Battery
Ground

are a few of the wire labels on the side of the motor if this helps. I really hope someone can help. My church is having a fishing event to benefit the "hope center" and I really want to get to participate.

Thank you all again

The switch is wired two ways depending upon ignition and engine year.

These wires are always the same:

1. Orange--not connected to the switch. it is the overheat indicator.
2. Red--always the "B" or battery terminal. Constant hot or positive 12 volts
3. Green-- Choke or "C"
4. Yellow--Start or "S" terminal.
5. Black--Ground. It is not attached to the ignition switch but can be used as a common ground under the dashboard.

NOW: If the engine has a distributor, the blue is attached to the "I" or "A" terminal. White is tachometer signal and does not attach to the switch. The two "M" terminals are not used. Purple wire is not used,

If the engine does NOT have a distributor then the blue and white wires attach to each of the "M" terminals. This is the stop circuit. Purple is the tachometer signal. Only accessories (Like gauge lights and power or running lights) attach to the "I" or "A" terminal

Good evening everyone, I hope someone can help me.
I have just bought an old Chrysler 30hp 2 stroke electric start which also has a pull cord, although someone has taken it off!
i don?t know how old the engine is, but i?m guessing 70?s.
On the engine plate it says model number ? 307111D, and serial number ? 1173.
Can anyone tell me how old the engine is?
Also i have a wiring problem, someone has replaced the wiring with caravan wire black cable,although there are white, yellow, green, red, blue and a black cable, also a brown, I managed to connect it up to the ignition switch and I can start the engine, but can?t turn it off as it carries on running, the only way I can stop the engine is by pushing the key inwards which seems to activate the butterfly flap on the carb and closes it which does stop the engine, I assume this isn?t correct?
The ignition switch does seem to be a bit past it, as you can use it without putting the key in, but I have tested it and it seems to be ok, I can?t find any sort of kill switch, and does this engine have battery charging or not?
Even with the engine stopped, if I push the key inwards it makes the butterfly flap close?
sorry for all the questions, been scratching my head all day, and it now hurts!
I need help people.
Thanks
Mike
