You obviously know what your doing...I have a '91 johnson 40hp with electric start and power T/T I'm going from a tiller to remote steer. I'm have trouble with what harness (part #) to order. Any suggestions would be much appreciated, love your channel
Brandon I’ve been following you for years I love the page brotha. I have a 1987 e140txcua I changed the whole ignition system from original to cdi due to a no spark situation, now the motor sounds like shit. Revs high the. Slows down and dies. At this pint you might be the only dude to help
Hey Brandon, I just installed a third party mophorn control box for my 2015 Mercury 25 HP outboard. It has a 14 pin connector on it. I cannot get the ignition key to start the boat. Does the 14 pin harness not control that? There are other wires coming out of the control box but I assumed they were for the dash instruments. Could one of them be the ignition wire? Thank you in advance!
I've figured it out. Brandon is right, could be any color. I just follow the wire from the neutral safety switch to the coils. My black with brown wire isn't on that small plug like his. Mine comes from the power pack that connects to the spark coils. I simply sauder my black with brown wires to the new red wire harness.
Naw, $130ish on eBay. (You need 581973) Something is weird with the late 70's to early 80's harness wiring; the stuff just falls apart. I would avoid buying something used for this era. To answer your question, chances are the $50 harness will work fine, but may have a different end on it for the overheat alarm, power-pack, or choke.
Not all engines have them, Usually, they are found on tiller electric start engines - this being a red-plug remote controlled engine, it would use the safety switch built into the controller. A lot of earlier years had them too; pretty much a any that used a simplex controller.
You would have to cut and splice the old one out, and replace it with a fuse holder. If the harness is in good shape, I would just buy the proper replacement fuse. It'll cost the same as a replacement fuse block, but leave the wiring in tact and splice free.
Great video as always Brandon! 👍
Great job man, it can easily be overwhelming but you made it very understandable. Thank you very much

Vegetable based wire coatings now ! Use to be petroleum base back in the 80’s and mice didn’t like it ! Lol

What year parts did you install?
Where I'm running into problems is finding replacement parts
Crowley marine is a good resource

What that tool called pushing wire into plug?
What’s that black box next to the terminal thing I’m new to boat motors and I’m trying to get one running after sitting for awhile
What color wire is the neutral safety switch? For a 78 35hp evinrude.
On the engine? I could be black, could be white w/ black. Could be yellow w/ red stripe.
Thank you @BrandonsGarage. I guess if it reaches, it's the one 😅
I think I got it now. Red/yellow from starter to neutral switch then to (s) on the control side plug.

Hello, what is the advance in degrees of the evinrude 50hp? I'm having problems with mine.
I need a wire harness just like that one can you direct me where to find one. I have a 1987 Johnson 150 GT ???
This was from ebay. There are 2 companies making them, CDI, and some unbranded seller.
I have a 55el78s, do I really need to purchase the $270 engine harness or will the 1979 $50 harness fit?
Naw, $130ish on eBay.

Did i miss the wire connection for the netural safety switch?

I’ve got the old glass fuse in my harness ,,,costing an arm and leg on the internet can I change it to something newer

Why would my trim tilt work fine with the ignition off but with ignition on the tilt goes up by itself . Changed the relays …..still doing it .
1993 Evinrude 70 ,
MY HORNESS CAME WITH ALL I DID NOT NEED TO PUSH THAT WIRE IN THERE
Brandon. Where are you from
i got a black wire with a green stripe coming out of my harness can you help me to pin point where that goes please?
60 hp model E60ELCNM
it looks to be black with a yellow stripe actually
Where can I get a engine harness for 50 hp 2 stroke 7 pin?
What year?
