Motors should be totally separate of all that. On mine all the stuff works with em out.

correct, I used an old engine harness and tapped everything off except the red starter and block ground, so hook those two to the red and black battery cables, connect the cannon plug, turn the perko switch on and it works, hook to starboard engine in most cases.
