I give up, just what are you asking? It seems like you have the side connector unplugged from the motor and are checking continuity between the choke wire (disconnected from the choke) and the pin(s) at the disconnected disconnected motor side connector (not the boat-side connector). Obviously, there should be continuity at the choke pin, and no continuity to the remaining pins.

If I am reading you correctly and you are finding continuity to all the small pins under such conditions, II have to ask what are you using as a test instrument? I am guessing a digital multimeter using the Ohms test function. What Ohms test range do you have the meter set at?

If this is not correct, what is the motor doing/not doing and why are you testing it?

I guess I’m too Old School, (or just plain old), but I don’t fully understand or trust some of this newer beeping stuff.
Can you do an actual Resistance test of the circuit and report back how many OHMs you find instead of just beep and snorts? Should be infinity or
close to it.

Frankr- New continuity meters have a function on them that emits a beep tone when you have continuity along with a visual reading on the face of the meter. This way you can test for continuity without having to look at the screen. The meter beeps if the ohm reading is below a certain level.  If you hear a beep tone, continuity exists. Great option for testing circuits where you can’t see the meter screen.
