WATERPROOF CONNECTIONS

Make sure that all wire 

connections are waterproof by 

using marine grade butt splices 

or similar when connecting 

wires.

In the unlikely event that the 

MOB+ System stops functi-

oning. Unplug the xHUB and 

plug the emergency cap into 

the cable to be able to drive 

your boat. The emergency cap 

is located on the cable supplied 

with the MOB+ xHUB.

KEEP EXISTING OR MULTIPLE KILL SWITCH(ES)

Install the MOB+ inline with your existing kill switch or inline with multiple 

kill switches by connecting it in parallel (e.g. multiple helm positions with 

separate kill switches). The below picture shows an example with Close to 

Stop connection as on Mercury engines.

Connection

CONNECTING KILL SWITCH SIGNAL WIRES

The engine signal wires on MOB+ xHUB consists of three wires. 

Only two 

of the three wires should be used when installing MOB+.

 

Connect the two 

signal wires to the existing kill switch wires in your boat. The most common 

connection is Grey and Orange (CS). 

See wiring diagram below.

 

Before connecting the xHUB Signal wires, you must verify which kill 

switch principle is used by your engine manufacturer.

After installation, verify functionality as in step 3 ”Verify 

Installation” above.

CONNECTING POWER (+/-)

Make sure that all wire connections are 

waterproof by using marine grade butt 

splices or similar when connecting wires.

Min. Voltage: 7V

 - Below this voltage the unit will turn off 

 

and you will not be able to start your engine.

Max. Voltage: 32V 

Do not exceed this voltage because this can 

damage the MOB+ xHUB and void the warranty.

Availability: 

FELL Marine dealers and buy.fellmarine.com

For multiple outboard installations, the black (-) battery cable of each engines starter motor 

ground circuit, MUST BE connected to each other by a common circuit (cable) capable of 

carrying the starting current of each engines starter motor. (i.e. A locally obtained battery cable 

connected between the negative (-) terminal of each outboards cranking battery.)

CAUTION

WIRING SE

CTION

All inline kill switches must be in ON 

position and the MOB+ must be con-

nected to allow the engine(s) to run.

NOTICE

Wire the xHUB to a circuit with a power 

switch to avoid battery drainage. The xHUB 

has a power draw of 30mA in idle mode 

while connected to a power source.

RECOMMENDED

Poor power connection may cause 

voltage drop below 7V e.g. when engine 

is cranked. This may cause xHUB to reset 

and inhibit engine start.

RECOMMENDED

Keep original kill switch in place. Connect 

MOB+ inline in parallel with original kill 

switch wiring using marine grade splices.

RECOMMENDED

Make sure that all wire connections are 

waterproof by using marine grade butt 

splices or similar when connecting wires.

Avoid cutting or modifying original kill switch 

wiring

IMPORTANT

This product is designed to be used in conjunction with the MOB+ 

xHUB to stop multiple engines simultaniously for multiple outboard 

installations. The MOB+ xHUB should be installed prior to installation 

of this Multiple Engine Harness.

for Close to Stop and Open to Stop kill switch principle.

IMPORTANT

Testing your kill switch principle

CLOSE TO STOP

OPEN TO STOP

- WHITE wire on MOB+ MEH is signal wire; each 

engines signal wire must be connected to the 

WHITE wire on the MOB+ MEH.

- BLACK wire on the MOB+ MEH is GND wire; each 

engines GND wire must be connected to the BLACK 

wire on the MOB+ MEH.

Connect WHITE and BLACK wires in pairs as 

bundled on the MEH kit.

RECOMMENDED

Keep original kill switch in place. Connect 

MOB+ inline in parallel with original kill 

switch wiring using marine grade splices.

RECOMMENDED

Make sure that all wire connections are 

waterproof by using marine grade butt 

splices or similar when connecting wires.

Avoid cutting or modifying original kill switch 

wiring

IMPORTANT

Test the kill switch principle by connecting a multimeter 

to both cables from the existing mechanical kill switch. 

Make sure the multimeter is set to measure resistance 

and that the cord is not attached to the mechanical kill 

switch, meaning  the kill switch is in the position which 

the engine will not run.  

Infinite resistance measured:
