Running heavier wire did the trick. Still IMO poor engineering when every other brand can run off of the factory wiring with no issues. But now they stay on.


Glad to hear!

Agree that for what it would cost the manufacturers to put in a simple fuse block for the electronics every new boat should have one, or at the very least heavier gauge wire.

When I wired my previous boat for HDS 10s, it works great until I switched to 12s, then I started getting a brownout on one of the dash units. I ended up starting the big motor with the kicker still running to temporarily solve the issue mid-season… found out the dash switch was not able to handle the extra load.
