2000 escape 23lsv fuel sending unit.

[makingwakes]

Ordered my fuel sending unit from malibuparts.com and when I got it it only has two wires. It looks like I have three wires on the boat side of the harness. The old sending unit in the boat only has two wires but it is wired and was working. It was definitely replaced at one point during the life of the boat. Just looking for input on putting the new one in and wiring it how it is wired. Inmar doesn't really give you a lot of resources to do work yourself as far as electrical diagrams, engine harness diagrams, or the like.

Unfortunately whatever boat this was done had a 2 wire harness in the engine bay, whereas I have 3

Interesting. What makes you so sure that your sender has been replaced? Where are you seeing this third wire?
