Again, all good stuff here folks. Looks like i don't have the market cornered on horror stories with regards to hosed up wiring and electical systems. Joe, if i had recieved your e-mail before i started i would have had to seriously consider flying you in! But now that i have cleaned her out myself, i'm good to go and better for it as i have traced down every wire, and have eliminated all but two wires as i have two sumps side by side, and i need to fire them up and see which one works and why in Gods name he didn't pull the one that didn't!! The good news is, should i be out on the water and have electrical issues, i have a mental visual of where all the wiring goes, and will be able to trouble shoot myself! I'll send pictures with the re-installation as i progress. In the meantime, tuesday i'm pulling the new boats "Yahama stuff" and Weds plan on re-installing all the "ETEC stuff". If all works out the new boat will be at my boat place by week saturday and having the ETEC re-installed. Its actually not all that difficult, and if your even a "fair" mechanic and take your time, its not that big a deal and i am dying to get back on the water. Will be in the high 70's all week with a nudge in the 80's here and there! :D Photo's to follow of course just so you can actually see me working!!
