Did you use the little round splice connectors for telephones? They have silicone in them and make a waterproof connection as well as crimp the 24 gauge wire.Quote:

Lol, yeah I tried 20 guage butt connectors and they didn't work that well and remembered what the telephone guys use. It's not a pretty splice but it's behind the dash. ;)Quote:

Just strip more off and fold it in half, then crimp it.. Works just fine... I tugged on it before I even sealed the heat shrink..Quote:

Awh why, we talk about everything else here. Besides it's cool to talk to a lady that wrenches on her boat. :)Quote:

I think that extra wire is for jet boat use only. Wiring it in doubles the speed so you can sell it as a 100mph boat on Ebay. :hilarious:Quote:
