Fuel level wire colors?

2003 ftd w/ mercuryI was reaching under the dash trying to diagnose ignition switch problem (5yr old moved gear shifter just off nuetral). After I thought about it and realized what had happened, my fuel gauge quit working. Im sure a knocked a wire loose, but Im not sure what color I am looking for and nothing is obvious. I have the a10 panel and smartcraft gauges. Switching left to right shows no fuel.Thank youLast edited by smbassman on May 26th, 2014, 10:13 pm, edited 1 time in total.

My wrong, it appears that BCB doesnt follow the ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Council) suggested marine wiring color codes.http://www.jamestowndistributors.com/us … o?docId=80http://boatwiringadvice.com/boat-wiring-colors/http://www.ftkltd.com/Boat%20Wiring%20a … 0Codes.htmhttp://bassboatmagazine.com/threads/nit … odes.5637/http://www.marinewireandcable.com/p/mar … codes.htmlJust to name a few references.

ABYC is not a regulatory agency.
