s750 Bilge Pump and other issues...

[victoryinerie]

My boat has an Attwookd S750 Bilge Pump which should work automatically however it does not, it works with the swith however when it fills with water the automatic portion is not turning on. I tried the knob on the front of the unit and it does not turn the unit on. Check for debris in the unit and nothing is appearant. Before I go crazy trying to track it down any suggestions?

Along with this the boat has a windshield wiper which assume runs on the assesssory switch which does not work? There is no wiper switch so I assume it the the accesory switch??

Along with this the boat has a built in a depth finder, which turns on however does not register in the water.

Along with this I am fighting a temp guage which might not be reading corretly, still investigating.

Could any of these issues be related?? Is there a common ground or something??

Re: s750 Bilge Pump and other issues...

The bilge pump does not work automatically if there is not a float/pressure type switch to activate it. the windshield wipers may be connected to any switch-wiring would have to be verified. The depth finder issue needs more clarification but sounds like a transducer that is either not connected to the unit or maybee missing from the boat- not sure. The temp gauge could be anything ( I am assuming this is an inboard?) is water even getting to the sensor? ( waterpump issue/blocked or clogged passages)is it a mechanical or electrical gauge? if electrical, is it a single wire sensor on the engine? it could all be related but likely not. take one thing at a time
