Thank you! Out of curiosity, where in MN are you? I’m originally from Red Wing, and have some family near Lake Mille Lacs and Nisswa area. Miss those lakes!
Got it, thank you. I tend over think EVERYTHING! Also, I just looked at the PSI specs for water pressure at idol, and it’s within range and it’s peeing. I’ll let it go! Ha!
I ended up using the two pin harness. A local dealer had the cable.
Part of the reason I added the VVMobile was so I could monitor my engine stats easier than flipping through the screens on the tiny SC1000 screens, I like a visual.
It’s funny mentioned the water pressure sensor, I have one on...
The only issue I cannot see to resolve is, the speedometer seems to think I have two fuel tanks, one port and one starboard.l, and it sees the port tank as empty and keeps triggering a silent alarm.
Is the speedometer getting that info from the tachs? I did set each tach up with fuel...
Well! EVERYTHING IS WORKING!!! and it’s working better than before. I owe you something…send me your address in a PM and I’ll take care of you. Everybody’s time is worth something.
Pretty sure I found it…two blue resistor caps. Plugged wire in…now to make some changes.
Will I need to a system reset on both tachs? Or just Port side?
I was thinking the same thing, I'm going to go down there tomorrow and start pulling things apart.
With the VVMobile connected, it will read everything with one engine selected but not both.
Okay, so I found the cap, it’s just a weather cap, it’s not a resistor cap. I wasn’t 100% sure so I took it to a local parts shop and they confirmed. So the junction boxes have no resistor caps. The only resistor caps I can find as of right now are on the engines themselves, they both have...
Unfortunately I’m out of the country at the moment, so I cannot answer all the questions. But here is what I remember.
When I went to install the VV Mobile, I had to remove a resistor cap from the Starboard J-Box - I cannot remember the color, I’d have to look when I get back. When it didn’t...
That is 100% the way it was setup, I had to remove the resistor cap to plug in the VV Mobile. Now the question is, can the CAN P harness cable be plugged into the JBoxes or do I need find that 14 pin port on each cable harness that was meant to be used with the CAN P cable?
Well I appreciate your honesty. The motors/boat are 2016, 150 Mercury Four Stroke engines. So far I have spoken with three mercury repair shops, and one electronics installer, and all of them have given me the same answer, "we're unsure."
I purchased the Vessel View from an online retailer...
Looking for someone who knows the in’s and out’s of setting up a smart craft system. I have two Mercury 150 Four Stroke outboards and when they were rigged, they were both setup as starboard engines. Apparently this was common practice at one point.
Anyway, I’m looking for some advice so I can...
