"I have a OMC Ford 5.0 and the hour meter is attached to the engine cover but I can't find any wires attached to it (recently purchased the boat), how can I wire in the hour meter in the engine compartment?

Thanks"

"Normally they are on the dash and get wired to the purple wire off the ignition switch along with the other gauges. You need to find the purple wire back at the engine and tie into it there. One quick place would be the purple wire that feeds 12v to the ESA module. Look at your ESA module, it will have a 4 pin plug and a 2 pin plug, the 2 pin has the purple wire in it, splice into that and ground the other wire from the hr metetr and you'll be good to go."
