I have the ACR version and I have no problems with it. I can even be on the dock. Shuts off engines when I walk away. Only problem I've had was wristband in my back pocket and sat on the power button.

Got out Thursday morning before going to the ramp to be hauled. Got one keeper 29 inch and a couple of overs on jigs under birds in insane bite.

again, the fuel grounds are not carrying any current except the sending units

8 gauge is expensive overkill. 16 will do.

again, the tank and fuel fill grounds should not use the negative bus under the dash. they should connect together and run to a battery neg terminal. They should be green not black. I am guilty of using black wire to replace some of it but I know its wrong. The Grady wire bundle used green wire...

oh, and that is 6 month seasons

They will go to the switch. The switch is choosing whether the gauge connects to pink or to pink/white on the "S" sender pin The blacks probably connect together to the negative/ground connection of the gauge or to a common negative bus for the dash. Often the power to the + or "I" pin comes...

just shy of 1000 hrs on my 5 seasons with the new Zukes. 100 to 200 mile roundtrips for tuna, mahi, tilefish. Trolling time also...

The Green (or black) wires on the fuel fills should go to the ground tabs on the tank(s). there should be a Green (or Black)wire between the tanks and then from the tanks to the Neg of the batteries. All of this is "grounding" to keep the fills and tanks at the same "ground" potential...

normally the original gounding wires would be green not black. The difference is that the green "grounding" wires are not intended to normally carry current. Black "return" or "negative" wires are part of a circuit. You should not use green wires as a negative circuit connection. However, gauge...

Got out Friday early. Leap frogged bunker pods down the coast from Bay head to Lavalette. Missed afew run-offs on live bunker in front of Mantoloking. Saw a few fish caught. Bumped out to the Axel reef and jigged a nice bass under birds Saturday early, stopped at first bunker pod at Bay Head...

I was out this morning Wednesday. 6 am to 9am Nothing happening in on the beach early. I went out to 60-70 feet and found crazy stripers under birds. i was all by myself out there in a 20kt south wind for an hour and a half NW corner of Axel Carlson. Then the fleet came out there and I went...

I hate that phrase... :mad: A marketing ploy... It implies that it provides a protective purpose..that the motor might rest on it, which it will never do... Its a crappy piece of trim to hide a seam in the transom... a transom cap.... it's always in the way of mounting the motor flush to...

That tells you the relay is not the problem. You should definitely fix that because "stuck on" is a bad situation. There are lots of choices for switches out there. West Marine, Amazon... The Lewmar SS ones are the prettiest and most expensive. West Marine foot switch
