Serial number 2b637409
Thinking about adding the sc1000 (79-879896K21) to console. Currently have the vessel view mob and would like to keep it installed. Other than the gauge, any other parts I need to do this?

You would need its harness and a junction box with a free port if you don't already have one. If it's not already rigged there, you could move your vvm to the j-box as well (another port). This eliminates the BT connectivity issues some experience.

Why would you want that ancient instrument on your motor? The Mercmonitor is MUCH more capable, has more data displays and is in every way better than the System Monitor your are considering.

Not sure why, I'm not familiar with these gauges. I'll check out the Mercmonitor though.Originally Posted by 06 SB

I had the SC1000 gauge on my Ranger. I went ahead and installed the MercMonitor anyway and kept the SC1000. I kept the SC on engine temp as a constant reminder of the Opti's current temp so I knew it was warmed up properly before I hammered it. I also knew if the thermostats were functioning properly. I like feedback. :)
I would concur- that old System Monitor came out in 2000. There are much more modern/current options, such as the MercMonitor, VesselView LINK, Smartcraft Connect (just to name a few).

Thanks for the info. I have a Phoenix and the gauge that the MercMonitor, that I've seen replace, is the gauge that shows water pressure, voltage, fuel level and trim. Will the plug for my current gauge plug into the harness that comes with the MercMonitor?
Would have to see the front and back of said gauge as there are quite a few instruments that meet that description.
