Borderline red

Why can’t I find that rectifier ? All the ones I see has a bunch of wires coming out. And does that rectifier adjust the charging out put? What I think I need is a voltage regulator.

No one knows what that silver box is?

Spare said it is a rectifier

[steplift20]

I heard what spare said but all the rectifiers I see have a bunch of wirescoming out of it,what I have ( look at picture) only has two wires going to it held in place with nuts.

what s the model number of your motor?

[steplift20]

Serial number. OB332083.
1988
150 mercury outboard

[spareparts]

Mercury list that as a rectifier 62351A1 . Should have 3 wires coming to it, two yellows, a red, and maybe a black for ground( not always). If ithas a regulator, there will be more wires.
