reviving an old one here. Lots of good info! I am replacing an old furuno radar that is on a 6" scan strut mounted on the bubble. The scan strut doesn't match the pattern of the Fantom 24X so i need to make a change. My question is, why hasn't anyone mounted on top of the bubble? Even if...

Yes, I just did this yesterday. Installed two new switches and works like new. The above directions are correct and Digikey has like a million of the switches and rubber boots in stock.

So the Rivnuts appear to be aluminum and most of the screws appear to be SS. Will there be an issue with these metals? I haven’t seen aluminum screws. I have seen some type of steel rivnuts but it doesn’t say stainless of any grade.

For those of you that have redid your dashboard or switch panels, how did you attach the new material to the fiberglass? I was thinking of using the blind inserts so that i can remove them easily. Basically, just 5200 the insert into the fiberglass hole and then screw into it. The purpose of...

Wrong picture. It does appear to have a gasket. https://www.groco.net/products/marine-sanitation/waste-macerator-pump/155-6110-12

i Think that this is possible. That opening is pretty small though. There are a good amount of nuts to remove but according to the diagram it is removable. Not sure on the gasket. Doesn’t look like one on the picture but it seems like there should be one. I just didn’t want to deal with...

I replaced all the hoses in mine when I did the macerator project. It wasn’t the easiest but it was easier than the deck drain hoses. Do yourself a favor and make the access panel under the starboard side seat larger. it really allows you leverage to pull the hoses off the vents

I am putting the pump where you did based off of your thread on the subject. I’ll run the power to the on/off switch. Think I’m just going to replace that switch anyway. my current Furuno radar is in the electronics box. I plan to use the same mounting pedestal and hopefully hole in the...

I just ordered these switches and the rubber boots. Also ordered some new spreader lights off of Amazon. This is my next projecT. This site is so helpfu!! now that I think about it, should pick up some of these light bulbs too

That makes sense. Thank you! My terminal block currently has the 6AWG feed, the feed to the fuse panel, the feed to the overhead box, feed to the switch panel, and the Windlass which just goes to the breaker on the dash or maybe to the switch next to the breaker. Do you think that have the...

Why do you say to leave the inline on both the radar and AP? I thought that the whole point was to have everything centralized versus finding inline fuses everywhere. I'm extremely curious on this one.

I only lost one screw in this project. And...It was on the old common bus bar. I was moving the feed from the bottom to the top over to the new fuse panel. I was very careful after that but i definitely see what you are saying.

What ring terminals do you guys use for NEMA2K power cable and Garmin power cables? Those wires are TINY! They must be like 22-24AWG. I did not find any heat shrink ones on line. Do these typically get soldered and then heat shrink over that? My plan is to attach to the fuse panel for power...

Guys, My problems seem to have gone away by removing that wire on the fuse panel. I cannot find where it leads to and I have zero idea of what I am missing by not having it plugged in. I have since replaced the fuse panel from OEM to the BlueSeas 12 slot panel. This is so that i can...

Thank you all! My 2005 Yamahas do have the white connectors with the blue white wire. I am hoping that I can pull some data from them via Nmea but not sure yet. According to the serial number they should not be command link ready but I am going to test. If so, definitely running to the...

i just got the proofs from New Wire marine. Thinking about having a couple/few switches on the right side of the helm, “gauge panel” I guess we can call it. One of which could be this fuel sender switch. since There is no breaker currently, and I don’t believe that it goes to the fuse panel (...

Congratulation! Looking forward to my first run on the 265

So you think that the first position switch is the fuel sender? It doesn’t have a breaker. I just assumed it was one of the ones that doesn’t work. Thanks!

Hello, I am in the process of having New Wire Marine redo my dash, gauge panel and switch panel. I am not able to see the covers on the switches to replace them. I have a few that appear to do nothing. I went to Grady customer service with my HIN and they do not have the diagram for my...

Just got a couple of the 1243XSV’s with Navionics. Coming from Furuno I’m excited to play with this stuff. Need the panels from New Wire to come in. If anyone has seen my battery switch thread, I have plenty of power! Just can’t turn it off
