Do I change wires at the pumps or do I make the switch at the touch pad? When I push the button on the round touch pad, they are opposite of what they say they are doing. Ed Vaca

Ed I havent looked at the touchpad wires but I imagine thwe wires in the bilge are easier to do-C.O.D. Jr. III

The touch pad is all computerized and looks way too difficult to do! The only concern I have in the bilge area is that the two pumps are no where near each other and it looks like the wires wont reach to one another to make the switch. So I have a minor dilemma! The bilge area is huge and I have plenty of room to work, though I will have to take the oil tray holder out and then reattach the tray with silicone and screws.

I would not take out the oil holder. I would wait for BCB to hit this before you do it but I would just cut the wires(midwire) off of each pump, crimp on some extra wires and duct tape the crimps and then essentially make extensions to the pumps you need to. Then I would drive the boat for a week or two, see if you can find anything else you may need touch ups on, and then Id take it to your dealer(Mossdale?) and have Pat fix it for good.C.O.D. Jr. III

Ward, Thanks for the info! You are right, I am going to run it a few more times and see if there are other minor things that I need to adjust and take it to Mossdale! I will see if BCB has an easier fix or something I am overlooking that might be very simple. I noticed that you have a new boat, congrats on that and I see its silver, so is my new one and the color is so sharp in person and pics dont do justice.

You can switch it simply at the rear if the wires are crossed there. Otherwise it is in the AMP connector under the dash, and we suspect that is where it is. Should be a simple thing there with a coffee or cocktail straw BCB

Please elaborate on the straw…I have images of Swann and I drinking gin and tonics and stirring a straw while I do the work with a screwdriver…C.O.D. Jr. III
