I have a 2003 Mercury 75 HP serial # 0T787481 and it doesn’t have the optional water temp gauge. It does have a horn connected to the thermosensor on the engine. I have the kit 12415A for the install and 12415 temp sending unit. I have 3 sets of instructions and they do not match my engine. Thinking outside the box, is it possible to replace the thermosensor with the water temp sending unit, modify the wiring, disconnect the horn and use the same wire up to the water temp gauge? This is an analog gauge. I tested the horn today and above the noise of the engine, water, wind, etc. I wasn’t able to hear the horn. Is it wrong to replace the horn if I can make the plumbing and wiring work with the current setup?
Thanks in advance!
