Call Nautimart in Florida. They can give you a guide on how to troubleshoot and identify the modules that are acting up. I’ve been thru those troubles too but was able to fix the problems one by one. Over 6 months now without any trouble on my EPlex.

Accident. Water intrusion. Happened during time of previous owner.

I have no photos since almost all of the work were done in a shop by my mechanic. The floor in the salon has to be removed and it requires a small crane or forklift to lift the engine.

500 hours. 2 piston rings were bad.

It was a guy who became my regular mechanic. Cost was about $8k which was about a third of what other shops were asking for.

I had the whole engine removed and rebuilt. All pistons and valve replaced.

Hi Tom, I just checked and I am already a member of that FB group. Very informative indeed. I just happen to be scanning this thread and saw you uploaded some ePlex docs so I inquired further. Thanks again.

Wow! Exactly what I need. Thank you so much, Tom.

Hi Tom, Do you happen to have a guide as to where to find the individual modules in the boat? For example: My boat's Eplex system reported that Module 274 is missing or inactive. I have located this module at the helm or bridge area, labelled as N17. I am trying to find modules 260 and 562...

Yes, I got one now. Thank you.

OK, will do that. Thank you.

Thank you. That's good to know. I have AGMs so it's probably a battery tester that I need, or is there another method?

Yes. Will also do that along with the inspection of the wiring scheme. Thank you.

Thanks for the reply. So for now, I will have to run the generator while out of shore power to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Thanks for the reply. I am aware of the danger of depleting batteries. Good thing it only lasted for a few hours and I was able to hook-up to the shore power right away. I hope no permanent damage to the battery happened. Will check how exactly my wiring was done. Thanks again.

Hi Everyone, My boat (SR 36DB) was in a harbor with no shore power a while and some of my batteries got depleted to less than 12v. Starting the engines was not a problem. So I thought that when I drive the boat going home, I expected the batteries to get recharged by the alternators...

Hello everyone. Happy Friday. My Mercury 8.1 port engine only goes up to 2000rpm when engaged, but would go higher if in neutral. In neutral, it does not misfire or anything associated with ignition or timing issues. But when the transmission is engaged, it goes only to 2000rpm with noticeable...

I don’t either. But that’s the instructions that the Mercruiser dealership tech got from Mercruiser tech support. That transducer is found only in the transmission of boats with DTS. They think my DTS is failing and it puts the engine in guardian mode. The DTS failure is caused by one of the...

My port engine cannot go more than 2000rpm when in gear.

I was told I need to replace that part (Mercury Part No. 865664). Were you able to know what it does?
