Hanging a CMC Jackplate on my 175
Have had Bob's before, but got a good deal on this.
When you wire it it needs 2 relays somehow
Trying to get schmetic from factory & they want to sell me a $120 harness.
Anyone have any clues?
I know it ain't that hard

Wired the same as Most Tilt & Trim relays
Must use a 5 Pin 40-50 amp relay- with 1-no/-1nc contacts
I don't know how -but I ended up with 4 pin the first time(Thru me for a loop)
We to NAPA a few times & without a parts# they didn't have a clue & wanted to sell me a $17.00 gimmick when i knew it was a $4 part
Do not think its the same as a flasher-(Higher amps)
Found a kit on ebay with 2 relays & plugs for 10bucks

Update-CMC will not sell the carbon brushes alone,At first they wanted to sell me the whole actuator unit for $400 bucks, after  going back & forth with them they finally said they would sell me the Black plastic cover cap that holds the brushes etc as a whole unit fro 80$, with no warranty cause it's a pain in the _ss to install & I guess alot of people screw them up. I still had issues with that ,Havin worked on industrial motors quite abit I new what was needed, so went to my favorite Ace HW, Found the right size brushes_(Next to their SS HW selection) fabbed up a new spring retainer on the existing black cover-Put in on (Carefully) & it works!!!-Not impressed with CMC but got a deal on it(so I thought)

   always most gratifying to DIY and beat "the man" at his game..
