Re: 1994 196 Phantom sst Pump troubles
I have a Crestliner 2160 sst(2001) I have just replaced both the auto bilge pump and the manually switched pump. Both are under the rear floor section its a bit of a job. How they planned it you should have to take out both centre floor panels,but what I did I took allthe screws out of the starboard (right hand side) rear panel mine has the main battery switch attached and the rear seat. Then instead of sliding the floor panel forward move it sideways towards the right and out,it saves removing the steps and whole lot more.When the floor is out its a simple job.The wiring is easy the smaller pump has a direct feed from the battery via fuse,it also has a manual overide switch.The other pump is larger and is a manually switched pump only. As for the live bait wells mine are disconnected.I dont know if any of this helps,I appreciate they are different boats but there may be something that helps.Good luck
