Hi....was wondering i want to disconnect batt for less weight and just pullstart boat . where do i modify wires to stop motor, i would like to run them to hand controls for a safty. splice coil wires?
To remove the boat harness for a kill switch you would have to ground and another to the salmon wire to the switch box in the kill switch in the circuit. You also need to remove the 2 yellow wires from the rectifier and tape them off
Actually, I don't think there is a salmon wire in the mercury harness. Black with yellow trace is the magneto ground (kill if grounded) and tan is the temp gauge sender wire.
I see salmon wire coming out of switch box in this link i'm posting .mines a 1976 il check tomarrow . I splice the salmon wire? just scared to short anything.thx
