My sending unit to the gauge on the hydraulic jackplate has malfunction. Detwiller is out of business and Dometic who bought Seastar who bought Detwiller considers it Obsolete. My cougar is a 2012 in excellent condition and don’t consider old. Any suggestions on a replacement part Or something that might work. The original part number is DK 3005. Any place I can find a part? Thanks

We would revise the operation and install either a SeaStar system, or the Bob’s. The Smart Stick on a SeaStar appears to be the easiest conversion.

Thanks we are going to order the Smart Stick. Hope it can be installed without removing the motor

Most don’t run a gauge on their plates, though we do think it’s best and they come on every Bass Cat install.

You will need a gauge also as that is an analog gauge you have.
