Re: Hydraulic Steering Helm Replacement
I have a 2006 G3 Angler V185dc
It has only 37 hours on it. I purchased this thing new but then broke my back thats the reason so little hours. But I took my kids out with it to run it and get it read to troll for walleyes. I got it up to running speed and hit a wave, my god it almost wiped out. I brought it to my G3 dealer, they told me it had to be bled so I told them to do it, I really don't understand why with only 37 hours it had to have this but I wanted it to be safe. I then find out that they are telling me the pump is gargage and need to be replaced because it will not allow them to bleed it. this is 500 dollars. I called G3 itself and talked to the warranty and customer service manager. I told them what I had and it only has 37 hours on it. This boat is always covered and kept in my garage.
They told me the boat is out of warranty so there is nothing they can do about it. Nothing they can do, what a load of crap, you talk about a company that does not stand behind there product.
I wanted to know if anyone knows of any way to fix this pump or from what I was told it is actually a C Star system or Sea Star system, I can't even find this company on the internet and my dealer doesn't have a number
Thanks
