Today I purchased a BF40 carb model with remote steering and power tilt/trim, I'm told its a 2007 but not sure(have eng serial number but cant find frame number). Anyways my question is: Is the wiring the same on all models of the BF40? The guy cut the harness to get it off the boat and its just a mess. I know they're are diagrams in the owners manual available from honda, just wondering if any manual will work.

Thanks for the help
 
The main wiring harness is the same as long as you are using the remote control model.


Post your motor serial number and I will check for the year.

It can be a anywhere from a 1998 to a 2003.

Given the 1038, it was probably closer to 1998 than 2003.

This is just my opinion so, please, don't take offense. Not surprising that the guy didn't give you the correct year as it sounds as if you may be in possession of a stolen outboard. I pass on them all the time that have the wiring cut and the transom clamps busted with the frame # scraped off but I've still bought a couple that I wonder about. After I got them home and discovered the numbers that they have are made up and start thinking a little more about the "story" I was given.
