If you have recommendations for switches for the tilt and trim, kill switch, on off switch that would be cool to know. Thinking about making a whole separate panel for those items. Style of switch and general info would be fantastic.
Need to start my 1995 Honda BF50A/remote on the stand. I've got a cut 14 wire harness (no control box). I do have the battery cables. What color wire do I need to hook up to start it?? Appreciate the help 🙏. Cheers.
I just acquired 1960-70's Mercury Thunderbolt 140 horsepower "Tower of Power" and can't seem to find how to wire it. And the one that you have with that push start Killswitch Etc... do you have a link where I can get that information ?
I have to repair a Mariner 30E that has the female socket off the motor and the battery leads but did not come with the rest of the wiring harness. I do have the throttle & shift controller but the key port is plugged out so i would assume there was a separate key switch. If you have one, i would love to buy it from you! I am in MD so how do we connect?
Man, it has been a while. Your beard is white now 😉. My dad gave me an old 5 HP outboard that his friend ran on very little 2 stoke oil so it need a rebuild. I’ll tackle that one day lol.
I have one question. I have an outboard force 50hp. I think 1986. 2 separate coils with separate cdi. To connect the remote wiring thee are 2 connections: magneto White and magneto blue. To connect these to the remote do they need both 12 to start up. Or are they connected to ground to switch off?
Hey buddy I have an 80s model 65 horse mercury and I believe it was your third set of plugs that you had made is what Mine uses I just bought the motor and it is supposed to run but I do not have the plug-in and my question is if you touch the hot and the ground on the starter straight from a battery should the engine fire or will it just turn it over? Thanks
hi i just bought vevor remote control for tohatsu 2015 mfs 30 c efi .but it have 8 pin adapter and also vevor remote control have 8 pin adapter. it doesn't work plz could u guide me how to set it .
My friend and I live in fire areas. We joked about learning to hot wire a boat if we have to evacuate and the roads are blocked. So thanks for this video. I'm wondering where you live. It looks beautiful.
Its not a bad idea bro, this video was shot when I lived on Maryland's western shore, and I thought similar things from time to time. Being so close to DC, the thought of a terrorist attack was sometimes in the back of my mind, and I always thought that when i-95 invariably clogs up from fleeing citizens, I would take to the water and cross the chesapeake bay to the eastern shore. So that was our plan, and I kept these jump kits nearby. Today I am retired and living in europe, so I dont think those kinds of thoughts anymore, but nevertheless its a good skill to have
Do you have any idea where I can find a color coded wiring diagram for the ignition switch? Unfortunately the wires on my 91 evinrude 150 were cut from the ignition switch and I’m not sure what colors go to what letters on the new ignition switch
Any chance you recall how to bypass a Yamaha outboard ignition switch, it has a 703 controller. It's almost 3 hours away the owner lost the key and I have to drive the boat home very soon. I think I wrote down the wrong key numbers off the ignition switch barrel didn't realize there was 4 numbers and 3 numbers for the key.. what wires should I jump to get it started and running.
As I recall, black is ground, red is power and yellow is ignition. So, connecting red to yellow will turn the motor on. Momentary jump of power to brown will activate the starter. Blue is choke if you need it, pressing that to power will activate it.
great test set/. can you tell me if the evinrudes will start with the harness un plugged? or do i need to make one of these up? can you tell me where the diodes are located in the evinrude motor harness? are they buried in a wire like a fusable link or something? i used to to work on mercs, now im trying to help out a buddy with his evinrude.
Well so the answer is that it depends. One some sizes and years, they are normally on, and spark is only interrupted by the kill switch. On other years you have to turn the motor on by making a connection, and then the motor is killed either by the kill switch or by turning the motor off. As I recall, if the motor needs to be turned on at all, it is done by attaching red/black to purple, and then yellow/red is the starter
I'm trying to make one of these for my johnson 88spl and I color matched all the wires up from the pigtail to the ignition switch and all that happens is my starter clicks. I also have 2 left over wires that dont have a spot on the ignition switch, is that right?
I just saw a 83 750 magnum V45 on facebook in New Bern N.C. for 600 . 00 Don't know much about the bike other than the post ... saw it and thought of you. Shawnee Oyenik it's posted on his page .
What about the neutral safety switch? Doesn't it also have to be wired in somehow in order for some motors to start? I have a dilemma with a Mercury 50 two-stroke. No spark. All the engine electrical components checked out ok. But still no spark. The wires to the control have all been chopped and ripped out. Tried to hot wire it. No good.
The neutral safety switch in the motor works independently from the controls. Basically it supplies either ground or power to the starter solenoid, and allows the starter motor to turn over. It does not directly affect creation of spark. Some remote control boxes also have their own neutral switches, but that is bypassed by creating these pigtails. If I were you I would obtain a replacement wiring harness rather than trying to hotwire the motor. They are cheap on ebay

Yeah toggle switches are no problem, you need one for on/off, one for the kill and a momentary for the start button. Google around for a OMC controls wiring diagram to see the colors of the wires, and set yourself up
Just got back ahold of my boat. It has a 91 evinrude vro 40hp. Currently set up on omc controls. The harness was all hacked up by a buddy. It has the red plug. Could you make me a harness like the one you show at 1:46?

@@joetristao688 Well its just 1 fuse that protects 1 circuit, the rest of it is unprotected unless you install an inline fuse.

@@mrmaxstorey yeah, first, just wondering if you had one to sell, apparently it’s a 1987, not 1989. I need the controller with the key switch and the long cable with the 7 pin end on it. If I cannot get this, then I must install a 6 pole push choke starter key switch, and I need to know what goes where. The magneto connections, the kill switch and such.

@@mrmaxstorey yes, I have all the wiring intact in the engine. It goes to the 7 pin plug, a male, that is attached to the engine.

@@mrmaxstorey my harness is in good condition I just want a secondary remote harness that's short that I can control from the back of the boat near the motor. I already ordered a new ignition should be here in a couple days.
@@mrmaxstorey well how we figured it was the kill , on the Old one we cut all the wires off kill on that one there were three wires after cutting them it fired up .
Some motors are all the time hot, and fire just when they get turned over by the starter motor, and then are killed by the key switch when you turn it off. Some motors you have to turn them on to produce a spark. I dont know on yours its probably worth getting a wiring harness and a switch, you'll need it anyway on the boat
Can you show the wire color codes and the switches and how you made it for my mercury 72-77 thunderbolt 40HP i am not sure of the color codes and what dose what to start and run it with the neutral switch bypassed,i want to run it with external from the control box Thanks bro great info the best i have seed here
Thats not an unreasonable question but I do have some good reasons. First, in this industry it makes a lot of sense to buy during the winter and sell during the summer, so I have been collecting motors all winter and now they are just starting to sell. Also there are lots of variables that customers are looking for: 2 stroke/4 stroke, shaft length, horsepower, tiller/controls, many people are very brand loyal. So having a diverse selection makes me more likely to make the sale. Also my dad ships me down a lot of motors to sell for him so a lot of these are his anyway. With these things just sitting up on stands they dont take up a lot of room and they certainly dont require any resources, so they arent wasting any money just sitting there until they find a new owner, so there isnt any efficiency wasted. All told I would be happy to have ended the winter with twice the inventory that I have now; at the rate this spring is going so far I'll be sold out by June
@@mrmaxstorey Sounds good The wasted resource is your capital that is being used up on motors that are sitting in your yard., capital that could be out getting returns.
I’m going to use this information only if corona comes and the shelf’s at the store are empty and I have to drive a boat down the Mississippi so fish jump onto my boat and take over an island with firearms
well you can google "mercury outboard ignition switch diagram" and theres a bunch of diagrams up that show you how to wire it, or in a couple weeks i will be cleaning out a storage unit and id be happy to sell you one i have a bunch of these pigtail starters

How to test spark
Why are you buying more motors than you can output. Your inventory management seems to be alittle inefficient if you have that many jobs pending.
Thats not an unreasonable question but I do have some good reasons. First, in this industry it makes a lot of sense to buy during the winter and sell during the summer, so I have been collecting motors all winter and now they are just starting to sell. Also there are lots of variables that customers are looking for: 2 stroke/4 stroke, shaft length, horsepower, tiller/controls, many people are very brand loyal. So having a diverse selection makes me more likely to make the sale. Also my dad ships me down a lot of motors to sell for him so a lot of these are his anyway. With these things just sitting up on stands they dont take up a lot of room and they certainly dont require any resources, so they arent wasting any money just sitting there until they find a new owner, so there isnt any efficiency wasted. All told I would be happy to have ended the winter with twice the inventory that I have now; at the rate this spring is going so far I'll be sold out by June
@@mrmaxstorey Sounds good The wasted resource is your capital that is being used up on motors that are sitting in your yard., capital that could be out getting returns.
@@Trenttabor see above answer...
@@smwrbd I did see it. The cost of the motors is capital that is sitting idle. Theres a term called velocity of money, look it up.
@@mrmaxstorey How is your business going? I've considered trying something similar on a much smaller scale. Love your videos. Cheers from Australia.
