Wiring Guidelines for Electrical Boat Accessories

IMPORTANT: Do not connect boat accessories to 12 volt or ignition key

switch DTScircuits. Use a separate switched 12 volt source for wiring boat

accessories. The DTS system requires a consistent 12 volt power source.

Splicing or connectingaccessories to the 12 volt or ignition key switch DTS

circuits (purple, purple/white, or red wires) could blow a fuse or overload

circuits, causing intermittent or complete loss of operation.

Harness Installation Guidelines

• Locate a routing path for the harness connections so they reach their

installation points.

• Inspect the routing path to make sure surfaces are free of any sharp edges

or burrs that could cut the harness.

• Fasten and support the harness with clamps or cable ties along the routing

path. A clamp or cable tie must be used within 25.4 cm (10 in.)of any

connection in a DTS system.

• Ensure all connections are tight and seal all unused connectors with weather

caps.

Key Switch Wiring Connections
