   does anyone have a wiring diagram for a 1996 nitro bass boat?
   i desperetly need a wiring diagram for my 1996 nitro bass boat…if anyone knows where i can get one, it would be greatly appreciated.
   all the wiring works accept the hotwire to the switch…which would seem to be grounded somewhere…will probably have to start from scratch…since we replaced the starter switch…and that wasn’t it….everything else works, just can’t get switch to come on….any ideas?
   fuses are working
   checked the kill switch
   ended up jumping the engine…directly from the battery, and pulling the fuel line to shut it off.
   don’t want to do this forever…any other ideas?

     It sounds to me like you can not crank the motor from the key switch? There is a neutral safety switch in the control box that maybe at fault. Can you hear the starter solenoid click when you try to crank the engine? Do your gauges come on when you turn the key on? If so, you are getting power to the switch. If you have power and no click, hold the key to the start position and move the control handle to fwd or rev and see if the engine cranks. If so, fix the neutral safety switch.

     Chilton’s Auto and Repair Manual. It can vary because you want to use it for a boat, so I’m sure there should be a boat manual as well.

   how do i wire a stereo in a boat?
   hello, i’m restoring a jon boat to transform it into a bass boat. i have worked a good bit with wires, however it’s been residential wiring and AC. i do not know much about automotive, or in this case, boat wiring. i will have a 12v battery in the boat. could someone please let me know or show a diagram of how to completely wire the stereo and speakers, being specific as possible. also could you tell me the things i would need, such as fuses and other electrical supplies. thanks
   the jon boat is a 14 ft aluminum with three seats (at fron’t middle and rear) however i will add decking and carpet the whole boat
