    Help making sense of DEC engine wiring please

    Doing a bit more research it sounds like it's actually a 6Y8 binnacle which explains why it works with the 6Y8 gauge. Given that what is the best way to get N2K data, the installer said they tried to use some cable they had in stock but it didnt work when they did the install. There appear to...

    Help making sense of DEC engine wiring please

    Looking at my controls the throttle has 6x9-48A01-11 on it so I think it's a Command Link Plus one? It has one larger grey plug and one smaller black plug, the grey has 10 wires and the black has 6 I believe. I dont see other connectors. There is no box other than the one that I believe the...

    Help making sense of DEC engine wiring please

    I tried to upload a photo as im now not sure which I have but it’s failing, my control looks like the helmmaster and has power on the right, start/stop in the middle, and station, neutral hold and trim assist on the left. It also has the trim and below that speed toggles on the lever.

    Help making sense of DEC engine wiring please

    Hi, I recently had to replace my engine due to a failure while on a trip and frankly I dont think the dealer really understood Yamahas wiring options. I got a F150 DEC model outboard installed, the goal was to have N2k output to my network. What they seemed to have installed is a series of y...

    BF225 water leak cleanup + part question.

    Thanks, and aside from the electrical harnesses is there anything I should be super careful not to get wet?

    BF225 water leak cleanup + part question.

    Hi, my port BF225 has a water leak coming from the short hose at the base of the engine kinda below/behind the starter. The first question I have is this the right hose/part? I stupidly did not remember to take a picture but there can’t be that many exposed water hoses in that location. Its...

    2010 Honda BF225 starts immediately but dies as soon as the rpm’s fall from the initial start.

    To make sure I understand what was happening, the IAC overrides the throttle body plate when it’s closed, since it was plugged up it caused the initial start to fail due to lack of air not fuel, that’s why when I cracked the throttles open a bit they started right up. What would cause the build...

    2010 Honda BF225 starts immediately but dies as soon as the rpm’s fall from the initial start.

    Iang6766 and jgmo, yall are awesome! I pulled off the IAC bodies, they both tested ok at 9.5 ohms but the screens were a bit black so I cleaned them off. Seemed like some oily film? Both engines just started right up. Thank so much, hopefully this rabbit hole of troubleshooting is at an end...

    Convert BFP60 to BF60?

    Ok that makes more sense, will look for a bf60 lower unit to swap.

    Convert BFP60 to BF60?

    Oh interesting, the issue I’m having is the motor idles perfectly in neutral, in gear it’s rough, so much so it makes trolling from the boat irritating. When I increase the throttle a bit it gets smooth again. Does this sound like the increase in valve spacing would help?

    Convert BFP60 to BF60?

    do you happen to know the right part number for a 2018 BF60 lower unit to do the swap? Curious what years bf60 lower unit will work incase I can find a cheaper reconditioned one. Any other parts I will need (other than a new prop)?

    Convert BFP60 to BF60?

    I wonder if it’s also to blame for my rough idle when in gear…. Looks like I’ll be looking for a BF60 lower unit…

    I have not done either, great advice, will clean the screens and use some throttle body cleaner this weekend.
