When the key is off, it connects the two M posts which is your kill circuit. When the key is turned to run, it should only supply power to accessories, so it connects B to A. When the key is turned to Start, it should be activating B, A and S (C) if it?s not a push to choke.

I was able to find a diagram for an 86 115 Johnson.

Great news, finally figured it out. I believe my boat may have been re-wired at some point, but not much matched up to manufactured specs. Anyways, this is how the wiring ended up being:

A: Yellow/Red
M (@12 o'clock position): Solid Black
B: Solid purple with 3 wires
M: Black/Yellow
C: White/Purple
S: Solid purple wire coming from "push to reset button"

Looking closer at my switch, I think what I have been calling "A" might be "S". And what I have been calling "S" might actually be "I".

Huge thanks to NicoPags, who was a massive help to figuring this out. Any questions feel free to ask me.
