    Help, I'm stupid!

    Where does the boat harness assy and the paddle wheel sea assy hook up when installing? Please help with pics. (2010 Merc 200 Pro XS).

    Thanks in advance.

    The boat harness connects to a 6-pin plug that should be located INSIDE the engine cowling (near the oil pump, down below the starter). There is likely a cap on this plug currently.

    Paddle wheel would connect directly to the boat harness (via the plug marked "paddle wheel").

    Take a look in this location- if you still can't find it, I'll see if I can snap a picture of a similar engine to help point you in the right direction.

    Found the 6 pin but can not find the paddle wheel 4 pin connector.

    Follow the convoluted tubing on the BOAT harness (fuel/oil/paddle harness) to where it splits into multiple branches (probably inside the splashwell or rear compartment of the boat). There should be a multi-pin plug here marked "paddle wheel".

    Re: Help, I'm stupid! (Florida1)

    Perhaps we ought to clarify some information. I was going to cross reference to see what items you had bought from us (your name is hidden in your profile, so that's hard to do).....

    Let's verify WHAT PART NUMBER your paddle wheel is (and the brand name from the package). This is critical, since the Mercury Paddle Wheel Kit is REQUIRED (and comes with directions and the appropriate plug for your application).

    Let's also verify that you have a Part# 859743T03 Fuel-Oil-Paddle harness....
