Evinrude gauge wiring help
Submitted by stevebw23 on Fri, 2016-12-30 13:08
Hi Folks, recently bought a project boat that has a 97 model evinrude 150hp. The boat only has 1 gauge hooked up (tacho) but there are 2 other sets of wires leading to nowhere which had been taped up by previous owner. Im guessing they are for other gauges? If anyone has any idea what these would be for I'd love to find out. The first set is white with brown stripe, black and purple. The second set is grey, black and purple. Cheers, Steve

Pretty sure what you have
Pretty sure what you have there is white with tan stripe group is for a trim and tilt gauge, and the purple black and grey is your Tacho group.
Black will be the Earth or Ground wire, purple will be your ignition switch / on and the tan and grey will be the signal wires.
Hope that helps.
Lethal beet me to it...

That's a pretty perfect
That's a pretty perfect example of someone asking a question and people almost immediately coming through with clear, accurate, easy to follow information. Couldn't ask for more.
