Carver Owners Forum

Does anyone know where I can find the Wiring Schematic for a 1997 350 Mariner?

Thanks!

I don't think one exists. I'd love to be wrong though. What do you need it for?

Thanks for responding

I just bought the Carver from an elderly couple who kept it in great condition, but it looks like whomever serviced it may have modified some of the wiring and my mechanic was wondering if I could get my hands on any schematic that would allow him to trace and label things so he can better manage it.

There is a user on here who downloaded all the documents from Carver before they closed their website. His username is Phrancus (but I might have that misspelled). If you search around a bit, you can find the thread where he lists what he has and gives instructions on how to retrieve the documents from him.

That would be me and yes, do check the list for files that may be of help to you.

Don't get your hopes up too high about the wiring though, mostly these are quite generic or in some cases hard to read the wiring color designations. Especially if modifications were made over time without much respect to the original systematic of the factory it can be quite a puzzle. Often people then put in additional wiring so that it works and then not document it so that the next can also not figure it out and puts in an additional wiring and so on.

The original is labeled (whatever is left of it) and has various gauges and colors. Often the modifications can be recognised but when original functions are moved to new wiring while leaving in the old, things can get very, very time consuming.

Solution? put in new wiring but do document what goes from where to where and why!

Thank you so much for the feedback and follow up!

Cheers!
