I have a 1976 Johnson 25 hp outboard. Model 25RL76E. Can anyone give me the ignition switch wiring? It has an electric start; electric choke switch and a kill switch also. 2 Black wires; 1 White wire; 1 Green wire and 1 Red wire.
Thanks
 
If you have a 6 terminal ignition switch: (You don't say what switch you have)

Black wire = "M" terminal (Magneto On/Off)
Black wire = "M" terminal (Other M term - Mag On/Off)
Green wire = "B" terminal (12v source)
White wire = "S" terminal (Starter solenoid)
Red wire = "C" terminal (Choke solenoid - Push key to choke)

The "A" terminal (Acessory) is hot (12v) whenever the key is in the ON or START position.

If I want to bypass the ignition totally while waiting for a new one to come in, how can I hot wire the boat just to see if the motor will run before dumping $$ into new parts? I have a 1989 BassCat with a 1988 200 hp evenrude.
