You're talking about the control in the pics right? The one currently on the Hydra and the pic from Ebay... (just making sure ;-)

Now I think I know what happened... I think the guy who sold me the 96 Oceanrunner sent me an older harness with an adapter... That would explain why I have the red plug AND the modular connections for the motor on the V20.

So, I guess I can just keep both harnesses connected as they are and just use move the adapter to the Hydra... If I do that, I may have to just buy a system check harness, but I'll have to look again to see if it's separate from the main harness or incorporated into the main harness.

Thanks for the help guys, it's greatly appreciated.

yeah OMC made an adapter to go either way old to new or new to old. i have both here i use testing motors. just use the adapter harness.

If you currently have the adapter, then just transfer it over to the HYDRA and go like SKOOLS said. One less thing to change over.

That's what I figured, will do boys!

Sorry to derail but figured this was a good place to ask...

Current setup..
Old controls, old harness, red plug to duetch adapter, 2000 Johnson.
With this setup I have no tach or system check gauge working (the plug is not there).

I bought the new harness from the 2000 Johnson up to the controls but thats where I have issues. Do they make an adapter from old harness/controls to new harness or do I have to hard splice them? If I bought new controls all would be solved, and I would be all smiles... suggestions?

pn 176345 would have gotten you straight from the get go. but if you have a new style wiring harness, you will then need a key switch pn 176408 it comes with the horn. then you need either a syscheck tach or a sys check guage.
