Hi,

I just replaced a broken marine ignition switch on my Sea Ray. The old one was a four prong but the new one is three prong.

The battery wires (red) on the old switch were connected to two terminals labeled A and B. The new switch had no A terminal, so I connected both red battery wires to the B prong. Is that correct? It seems to work, but so far I only tried it with the #2 battery.

Let me know.

Thanks.

Jeff

Jeff,

Your old ignition switch had an accessory position and had four terminals. They should be:

• B – Battery
• A – Accessory
• I – Ignition
• S – Start

Your new ignition switch doesn’t have an accessory and only has three terminals. They are:

• B – Battery
• I – Ignition
• S – Start

Connect both the A and I from the old switch to the I on the new switch. This will allow the key switch to turn off any devices that were connected to the key switch accessory position. If you keep the A and B wires connected at the B terminal, your switch will not turn off these devices.

Hope this helps,

Kevin
