These steps should help anymore that doesnt have a timer on the recir pump. Most 18xs and 19xs dont have a timer on the recir just a timer on the aerator pump. Now if you get the tournament livewell package or the eilte it comes with a recir timer. The reason I added this was because the livewell over flows are at the very top. With the aerator in auto/timer it still fills up to high. The spray head is under water and water flows out of the discharge pumpout side if it gets to full. Nothing wrong with this but I dont need that much water. Also my recir pump was constant. 1st boat I have owned that didnt have a timer on the recir. Anway there are a few threads on here talking about it. I asked my dealer how much a timer and harness would be? They did say, all I know is the timer was sitting on my door step a few days letter. Triton sent the part and my dealer paid for it!!! awesome!!! I think it maybe 50-100 bucks. Now some have installed a after market switch and timer. I didnt want to do that. It took me all day to figure this out. I was trying to wire it up like the aerator switch. I almost gave up. Dont let all the wires Triton sends you confuse you. They sent me a timer, a new aerator switch and the harness. You dont need the switch, just the timer and 3 wire harness. The links below talk about it more and show some pics. My switch panel is different. I have 4 breakers below my switches, i guess because I have a newer model. 2013 18xs. Livewell Timer Installing Livewell Timer Question Mr Jones thanks after 6 hours I read this and tried it this way and it works!!!!!!! Dont hook the new timer up like you see the aerator timer. Jones Trolling motor: I agree, looks like brown / yellow would be the recirc, brown / black should be pumpout. verify at the pumps themselves. Using brown/yellow as recirc, remove that wire and connect to timer output. jumper wire between connection on switch (where brown/yellow was) to input on timer, and supply ground to timer. The ground on the switch is for the light. You only need two of the double male to female connectors. Take the brown/yellow wire to your pump and hook it to the brown/orange wire coming from the timer(middle wire on harness) Take your timer ground wire/black and use one of those connectors and ground it to where the ground is on the pump out/recir switch. Now where you took the brown/yellow wire off the switch, run a jumper wire from that terminal to the orange or (red on some) wire to the timer. Done!!!  It works like a charm. Please PM me if you have questions. Would be happy to walk you thru. Pics below is how the kit came, not how to wire it up. TRITON PART NUMBER BH121A0358
