Default Re: Master switch and isolator wiring

Just as a side note, after installing the switch in the aforementined manner, don't get in the habit of starting the boat on one batt then switching the selector to a different position. Its really hard on most outboard motor electrical systems and can eventually fry the regulator rectifier in your motor. Instead start it on "all" and leave it there. If you stop and fish or anchor and swim, switch it to one or the other for running live wells and electronics so you have a spare fully charged batt to get the boat started again. But don't swith the batts while the engine is running.
