Hi, It is my first time here hope you can help me out. I have replaced the circuit board in my 1989 Quicksilver 6.5 Genset. Now when I took out the old one I numbered the wires according to the terminals. Great idea but one of the wires slip by.:smt100 So now I have an extra wire and even on the coatiing on the wire there is no number? Does anyone out there still have this genset and would be able to tell me or send me a picture of the wiring on the curcuit board? I think it goes to the 1 terminal and that would make 3 wires on that terminal and if I remember right I think that one of the terminals had 3 wires on it. Any help would be great. I just got the boat in Sept and I have not had it in the water yet and the season is coming soon in the northeast were the temps are in the mid 70's on Easter.
Thanks
Bob:thumbsup:

PM me with your email. I can send you a pdf of the Shop manual. Section 7.3 may have what you need.
 
Hi Bob,

I have a similar genny (7.5kw) and also will be replacing my circuit board. I had a failure the end of last season with no voltage to panel while running. sadly, my boat is 75 miles north of me now, so I cant get to it. I will try to take pix this weekend if possible.

BTW, why are you changing out the circuit board. I am curious to see if you have similar symptoms and what caused this. In my case, the v-belt broke and caused the governor to over-rev (I think) which cascaded to the cct board. I am fairly certain it fried the board. My symptoms are VERY low voltage to the electrical panel (5-7 volts). Genny now runs fine when I replaced the v-belt. Its either the board or the voltage regulator. My luck, it will be the more expensive part :) LOL.

Let me know.
