Yeah it’s past my ability to troubleshoot I think. Thanks for the help. It will be a little while but I’ll update as to what I find out.

Thank you. These seem to check out fine (12.5v). I’m getting more concerned that the ECM is shot. Truthfully it doesn’t come as a huge surprise as it is so old. We bought this 2004 boat and...

Oh yeah, and fuses are all good, that was actually check #1 that I forgot to mention!

Thanks FeFanatic (username intrigues me, triathlete by chance?). Once I determined there was indeed spark I quit looking into the kill system as an issue. I just went and checked the CPS and...

Hi all,
my son’s 3L 200 EFI s/n 0T995854 has a new problem. He was running it the other day when it just shut down completely. Initial troubleshooting, first thing checked was compression which is...

I am looking into checking fuel rail pressure procedures in the manual, and trying to decide whether or not I have this ability. I will probably be taking it to a shop. I sort of figured that the...

I’m sorry I forgot to reply to Joe earlier. I have not done this test yet. This is going to be something new for me, is it difficult to do? Is there a place where a guy can find a good procedure...

Update: I have replaced fuel delivery from the tank to the motor...A1-15 tank to bulb, new bulb, B1-15 hose bulb to pump, new pump, and new filter. I didn't really see anything in the old filter,...

I have a 2004 Triton TR196 with a 3L 200EFI. S/N 0T995854.
Boat has recently been randomly seeing a power loss where it struggles to get out of the hole. Seems to run ok once on plane. I want to...

Well, thats definitely the clip! Since it is on the inside of the motor mount frame, i assume that it's purpose is to serve as a "stop", so you know you have unscrewed it enough? Is this correct?...

Don,
I'm still at work and haven't had a chance to check yet, but this HAS to be it! Thank you. While I did not use the manual trim screw this weekend, a few weeks ago my son blew the fuse under...

Today i pulled the foot off my 2004 3.0 200hp efi, s/n 0T995854, to check out the impeller after beaching it on a sandbar and plugging the pisser tube. All went as planned, but when i returned to...

Well, it was a blown 20a fuse under the cowl. If holding the fuse holder with the 5a fuse on the left, it would be the upper right 20a. Any ideas why this fuse would blow? I replaced it and...

Any ideas? My son is out of town and just called to let me know that he was running and everything shut down. Now no power to motor at all, no beep when he turns key, no trim, nothing. Kill...

I know the ticking is normal, but the ticking random changes in speed seem abnormal. The TM unit also ticks, but at a nice steady speed you would expect. Both units seem to have no change when I...

Hi all,

I recently installed 2 new Helix 10 Megas on my son's boat. The console unit appears to have a problem. Son reported that SI and DI are not working on it.... I did a little checking in...

Thanks Wayne. I am a little confused. It sounds like you are saying i will get echos regardless of where i mount the transducer if i have a jackplate. How far below the jackplate to i need to...

Getting ready for the install..... ive got all my ethernet wiring, the y splitter and thru hull 2d transducer, now trying to figure best place to mount the SI mega ducer. I have an 8inch jackplate,...

Oops.....duplicated my post. sorry

Thats kinda what i started thinking...... i will just go with the inline fuses then and save a little cash to boot!
Thanks Wayne

I am preparing to install a pair of Helix 10 Megas,  I am getting all my accessories together, fabbing transducer & head mounts, etc.   I am running new wiring to batteries, but am...

Wow, what a great reply. Thanks Wayne, I know that I asked a lot of questions that I probably should have taken the time to do my research first , but was hoping that someone would offer to help...

Hi all. My son recently purchased 2 new Helix 10 Megas for his boat. These things have sure come a long way since the last time I did an install. I have a few questions about the install, and...

And, i know that i broke the rules and have revved the motor just a little....so i may have triggered that one myself. I called around,
and it looks like i will have to pay someone an hour's labor...
