Make Sure All Electrical Components Are Working Before Disassembling Any Parts. To Simplify Re-Assembly, Write Down Details And Number Individual Wires With Masking Tape. The Harness To Lights, Pumps, Etc. Really Isn’t That Complicated. Take Your Time And Look It Over Well Before You Start. Most Of The Wiring Is In The Console As A Harness To Gauges, Etc.
A Separate Fused Circuit Should Be Run From The Battery To The Console To Serve Pontoon Accessories. Never Pull Power From The Key Switch
We Recommend You Rewire Your Pontoon When You Have The Deck Off. Run A New Pair Of Heavier Wires From The Battery To The Console With A Fuse Block Or Switch Panel With Individual Circuit Protection, Or Use Our Wiring Harness (Model No.: HM4065), Which Includes Wires For Basic Circuits
Unlike Automotive, Marine Wiring Systems Must Have Ground Wire. Do Not Ground To The Frame Of The Pontoon As This Can Cause Pitting Of The Tubes
Use Appropriate Gauge Wire For All Circuits (Minimum 18-Gauge) For Navigation Lights. Check Amperage Draw For Determination
Use Butt Connectors And Crimp Type Connectors, Never Use Scotch Locks, Shrink Is A Plus
