Hi
I recently bought my 1st boat, it`s a Hustler 14ft with 60HP Mariner PTT and electric start , 3 cylinder, 2 stroke , oil injected, No 0D055035
I have few issues with it :
1. There are 2 wires inside the engine that are not connected , one is TAN and other is Brown-White
2. There is TAN wire not connected to anything on outlet side of accessory plug by Commander 2000.
3. I have 2 wires coming from controller and going to dash but not connected TAN-BLUE and BROWN WHITE
I would like to wire a radio and lights, but I cannot understand how the system works. I know that it has a stator and rectifier. Is the rectifier regulated on this model? According to manual it should be regulated (serial no D000750 - ON )
That means is will produce 12v charge at 9A at 3000rpm, do i need a separate cable to battery to charge it ? Or it uses same Positive (+) that runs from battery to motor ?
Also I`d like to have an accessory battery but chargeable from the engine (Im thinking about 5-10AH AGM ). If I run only positive cable from main battery to front and use negative to connect accessories, will the battery charge just via positive wire ? It should in theory be connected Positive to Positive and negative to Negative to charge i guess ?
Thank You for help , I`d like to slip the boat this weekend but want to wire it before
