Location: Duluth, MN | I just had an Optimax put on a Tuffy 1890 and when I got it back the only gauge that works is the Smartcraft gauge. I talked to the place that did the install and he said that I can't have my other gauges hooked up with that because they require 2 different wiring harnesses. I can't believe that's true, but I figured I'd ask here. Am I just being fed a line? |

| He is correct in that it's two entirely different harnesses for analog and smart craft. |

Location: With my son on the water | I installed a Merc Ecco Monitor gage on my rig this spring. YES you can have the other gages work but you need to spend extra on harnesses and some things under the cowling on the motor.
When I installed mine I removed the RPM gage and put the Ecco monitor in that spot. I didn't spend the extra money to get my speedometer to function as already that on the Humminbird and the Ecco monitor but I could have by installing a splice on the peto line.
Call the Merc Service tech and they will tell you how to get everything working if you need it. |
