Your model has the 5-connector plug at the remote control which permits
the in-gear "safety" starter lock out which got added in 1969.
It's about as simplistic as this: (Light) Blue Forward -- (Light) Green
Reverse
Any Questions?
Oh yeah, the return current path is case ground. Or "earth" as the Brits
call it.
Picture worth a bout 1-k words?

You'll probably want to acquire a new lower unit wiring harness assembly
if they got cut up.
The insulation and connector integrity is important to reliability.
(One drawback of the design is to fail in neutral, not in gear.)

Subject: [OMC-Boats] wiring for 1970 Electromatic OMC 210hp...
Anyone having any info on the wiring for 1970 Electromatic OMC 210hp
outdrive off of my Johnson Surfer. I'm having to rebuild my lower unit
and the wires in the lower unit were severed and hanging loose. I'm
looking for a diagram that shows the wire schematic for my lower unit.
Can anyone help? Thanks, ~Joey
