One of the pink wires comes direct from the MPR, the other comes thru a fuse for the FP
To not have power on either then there is a break in connection, blown fuse or both. The weird thing is how are you getting the 2 beeps if no power is coming thru MPR?
A Tach can be rebuilt but most times it cost more then a new one, just have to check
Keeping it simple, the Tach counts pulses. The pulses come from the coil firing. To fire the coil the Neg side gets switched to ground real quick, then opens back up.
The key is opening back up.
So if the...
Your getting the beeps which means the main power relay (MPR) is energizing. Once that happens the ECM applies a ground to one side of the fuel pump (FP) relay to turn it ON.
The square relays on the motor are all the same. Swap the relays and see if you still hear the 2 beeps. If you hear the...
Maybe think out of the norm.
Depth gauge is always good to have but with no room, under the throttle, under the helm, back by rear seat, in a cup holder. Could put anywhere, running wires are easy enough
The soak in water is just what the manufacture recommends for the 8 plat rode, think to make it lay better. If your using 3 strand then its not required that I know of
I had a maxwell 500 on my formula with all chain, was a great windlass
The Maxwell manual says after attaching rode in locker...
Could be it does but it might be damaged or disconnected. Found many that disconnected because they didn't want to hear when trying to start. It's behind the helm
Would first need to know what windlass model?
There are several types. If it uses 8 plat then the rode needs to be soaked in water for 24 hours before install
Most require end of rode to be attached inside locker, then use windlass to feed rode in
Don't replace temp sensor unless testing indicates it's where the fault is
With heads being removed prior, there now might be an issue with a head gasket leak. If head was not checked for flatness, it could have been put back on and now the gasket leaks
Can verify a gasket leak with...
Think I figured it out, your talking about the newer single point drain system. It's mentioned in manual 26
While we don't know what year the OP's motor is, I don't think it's that new
