Adding temp gauge
 

As you guys may recall, I stripped my V down completely. Replacing the dash, I decided to go only with a tach and a water temp gauge. I picked up inexpensive teleflex models at west marine. The instructions for the temp gauge are not very thorough. While I understand ground, ignition, and light... what wire do I connect the the S terminal?

I think I have the tach correct - purple to I, black to G, grey to S - all coming in via a harness from the throttle control box. 1994 Evinrude 175HP, by the way.

Thanks,
Aaron

your tach wiring is correct. As for the temp sender you will probably have to buy a sender and install it to one of the cylinder heads. then run your wire to it.

tan to s(sender) wire on temp, tan with ablue stripe to alarm or light.

so the tan wire that goes to the alarm will work for a temp guage?
I want to add one for mine.

alarm should be tan with a blue stripe

Forgot to say thanks, Spare. Haven't got it fixed yet, but at least I have a plan.
