"It should be color coded.

"It should be color coded.

Red wire should be connected to a 12 volt battery source.

Green (Up Mode), connect it to the like color (green) up wire leading to the tilt/trim unit.

Blue (Down Mode), connect it to the like color (blue) down wire leading to the trim unit.

Should it be that someone has spliced in other color wires, you'll need to trace them down with a volt/ohm meter to determine the color code."
 
"i have the green,blue and red

"i have the green,blue and red what i have is in the battery area is the two relays there is a blue,green and red that comes from the other switches those wires go into the relays then there is a larger blue,green and red that comes out of the relays that go to the motor do i slice into the ones going to the motor or the ones that are coming from the other switches i just wanted to be sure because this switch cost too much thanks for help"
