Battery connection 70 hp

[Stuartryan]

I just got a 2014 Yamaha 70 hp and I’m try to hook up the pos and neg to motor. Does anyone know where to connect and maybe send a pic?

What country are you in? Are you sure that you have a 2014 70 HP Yamaha?

Here in the USA Yamaha stopped offering the 70 HP two stroke in 2009. If you are in the USA then I suspect that you have an F70. F as in four stroke. It makes a difference when viewing the parts catalog and service manual. Also when ordering parts. Also when asking for help on the innerweb. Specifying the complete model identity might also be useful. Such as F70LA.

If you indeed have an F70LA here is a photo that might also prove helpful, in addition to the above diagrams, when installing the battery cables.

I am trying to be kinder and gentler but it is not coming easily. Particularly over on TOS.
