ATC Installation Tips?

To revive this thread, has anyone installed the ATC on 2007 or newer with the trim integrated in the whole touchpad? Touchpad has 4 wires coming out of the rear, but controls tabs, hatch, bilge blower and bilge pump. I've talked with Tom, and the thought is to find the Bennett wires somewhere further back in the system. Do I look at the breaker panel in the bilge to find the red/blue/green/yellow wire bundle?

While I had only one control on my 2008, I did have to deal with a Sea Ray-installed wiring run that was colored differently from the Bennet harness. They apparently installed a run/harness as part of the initial wiring package. That could be true of yours. The Sea Ray wiring started just forward of the Bennet pump on the aft transom. You might start looking there on yours to see if there is a transition from the trim tab wiring to an installed run and note the wire size/coloring. If there is, it probably emerges again near the dash and thence to the integrated control and you might be able to tap for your new control from the transition point.
 
As Al points out go aft to the pump and follow the blue, yellow, red and green wires forward. SeaRay had us supply many pumps without a connector on the wire harness so that they could connect their own harness to it. That would mean that the connection could be within two feet of the pump.

Well, I finally got my ATC working. I created 2 wire bundles to run back to where the pump is and was able to get it working. A little more convoluted on a 2007.
