I have a question about the sensors.
I just got this boat and have to use the Trailer button to tilt the outdrive up since the up/down button wasnt working. I see where the wires have coroded thru and luckily I can take off the sensor by turning it alll the way to one side or the other. I see where the wires go thru the back, how does water not go thru the same hole. It seems that it would very easily. Should it be sealed with sealant??
I plan on soldering the wires up to the new sensors, and running wire straight back thru that same hole, unless there is any other way to bypass it???
I have heard of people bypassing also? Is that what I was doing by using the trailer button.
Sorry if its a dumb question. New to the whole boating things and learning alot!!
THanks
