Mariner 40 rectifier fitting

[Keith 1]

Hi all I am try to fit a rectifier with 6 wires to my outboard that has a charging stator.
It has 2 yellows 2 reds a grey and black.
It didn't have one one when I purchased it so I can't relate to any wiring.
I know the black is ground and grey is taco.
Any help would be truly appreciated for the 2 yellows and 2 reds.

Can you not find an online repair manual with wiring diagram?

Links here for Mercury and Yamaha engines. Mariner were rebadged by these manufacturers depending on year and origin. Starter for ten anyway. You’ll find manuals by Clymer for example.

Also a poor copy here of 3-cylinder outboards with regulator/rectifiers. Process of elimination and all that. https://s6ca5bb3203b5f73d.jimcontent...20Diagrams.pdf

The diagram on page 105/106 of this manual seems to show the colours you are looking for.
