Testing the kill switch principle
Testing with multimeter
You can 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. See picture on
page 37 for reference on how to measure.
Infinite resistance measured:
You have a Normally Open (NO) Kill Switch – Use Blue wire and Grey
wire on the Boat Unit to connect to the two existing kill switch wires
from your engine. See wiring diagram for Normally Open on page 39.
Close to 0 (zero) resistance:
You have a Normally Closed (NO) Kill Switch – Use Orange wire and
Grey wire on the Boat Unit to connect to the two existing kill switch
wires in your boat. See wiring diagram for Normally Closed on page
39.
