ADAPTER
This adapter is required for older Yamaha out-
boards. Refer to the “Applicable Models” sec-
tion for details.
Installation instructions:
1) Remove the top cowling and remove the
cover from the CDI unit on the outboard
motor.
2) Remove the white wire on the CDI from
the main harness.
On V-6 models (except V6 EXCEL), do not
remove the white wire located beneath the
CDI unit that connects the CDI to the con-
trol unit. This is the wrong white wire. The
shift cut system will not function if this wire
is used.
3) Cut the eye terminal from the end of the
white and green wires and install two male
bullet connectors.
4) Connect the adapter wire as follows:
• White wire to the white wire with the
new bullet connector.
• Green wire to the green wire the new
bullet connector.
• White/black wire to the CDI terminal
that the white wire was removed from.
• Red wire to the red wire terminal of the
rectifier regulator
• Black wire to the black wire terminal of
the CDI.
5) Change the grommet for the black wire
from a 1-hole to a 2-hole type.
6) Clamp the adapter to the main wire har-
ness with a tie clamp.
7) Reinstall the CDI cover and the cowling.
8) Start the engine and make sure that it can
be stopped by the main switch, by the stop
switch, and by pulling the engine stop
switch lanyard.
