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

You don't need to use Lewmar brand $witche$. But it simplifies decisions...you can't go wrong with the pictured switch(es) if it is running a relay. It is a 5 amp switch. IDK what is there now. You need to look at whether the switch is controlling the full current of the motor or whether it...

Tomorrow is going to be really cold and windy but the rest of the week is stellar. West winds. Acres of bunker, big stripers and occasional bluefin. Party boats have been doing well on slow days and epic on good days. All along Monmouth and Ocean county beaches If we don't get it done this week...

Pull the whole deck hatch. Its just screws and silicone. get a look at the tank and fittings. If you find nothing you will at least be able to clean the tank and know what you have. You really won't accomplish anything looking thru the pie holes.

HAHAHA so I was at Shrewsbury Rocks Sunday.No party boats except one anchored and blackfishing. I got nothing. Lots of bait at 3 mile line. no fish. There was a bunch of party boats about 3 miles east (Farms?) of me. I figured they were bottom fishing. Past 3 miles so can't keep stripers...

Went on another boat out to Shark River Reef. Caught a mess of very nice sized sea bass and porgies. Gonna blow for 5 days. Hopefully the stripers turn on and move down to Manasquan next week. Really want to get done and wrap up while its reasonably warm.

ok I looked at the install pdf so its just adding an external horn/light to the built in alarm horn and on-screen alarms. I can hear the built in alarm well enogh anywhere on my 265. I guess I understand if you are sleeping you might need one in the cabin. I had never looked at that...
