Hi Blueone. I have same issue. But the cable appeared to connect into a sealed unit behind the cradle which then feeds the radio and separately the speaker. Just confirming how easy this was to obtain and replace?

I have some mild weather cracks on top of rear bench seat by transom door. No where near ready change out. Looking for solution to cover / seal up. Anyone have positive experience doing this?

The Waeco 1.6CF freezer on my 42 Sundancer works well when plugged into shore power but warms up to 0-1C when on DC. Compressor is a Danfoss D35F 101Z 0200 with controller 101N0220. Test light flashes 2X suggesting fan overload cutting off compressor but I have replaced fan already and no...

Helpful answer. Are you installing 10X 100ah LiFePO4 ? The momentary discharge charge rate is 200aH for single battery. What do you believe would be required for just a single port diesel engine? The idea of simply replacing the port with a 200ah or 300ah lithium would meet my...

Hi Larry. Any chance you would have part numbers on your invoicing for this 1000hr service? This would be very helpful.

Pulled freezer and downloaded compressor manual for the Danfoss BD35F. This is a simple diagnostic led connection that flashes codes 1-6. As the only part that can be replaced is the controller, I am going ahead with that. I do note that the battery protection circuit can be varied to allow...

Freezer runs well on 120v. Can hear compressor operating on 12v but even with full batteries the freezer starts warming after just a few hours. Freon is filled property. Thoughts?

Has anyone found a suitable replacement freezer, or retro-fit of parts for the freezer? Attempted to recharge but not solving problem. Not cold and consuming a lot of energy under batter power. Marginally cold under shore power.

Great summary. Do you know filter is used for the Racor unit?

My autopilot requires user calibration every time turned on. It will periodically lose calibration during cruising as well. Any advice?

Has anyone calculated optimum cruising RPM based on Cat 8.3 power curve and hull design? Continually need to recalibrate auto pilot each restart of engines? Any advice?

I continue to get a "needs calibration" message on a Raymarine RL80C. Seems to lose compass calibrations on each restart. Went through the process a couple of times but want to fix. Ideas?

What is the best transmission oil for the ZF 280's on my 420DA? Manual says SAE 30 ... but I suspect some of the experienced Sea Ray boaters have preferred recommendations. Also, I only see a magnetic plug and screen to clean. Assume there are not any other transmission filters to consider...

I do like to do my own maintenance, as it keeps me understanding my boat ... and a break from my regular day-to-day work. A change is a rest. I will definitely join. Thanks for this.

Thanks. I am not a member of boatDiesel but will see if I can look up. Transmission is ZF280-A. This helps. Thanks

Recommendations on oil type and quantity, and aftermarket filters and gasket for screen? Any enlightened advice mush appreciated. Also, where to order zincs?

The heading on my ST7001 is almost 150 deg off from the GPS tracking and the mag compass. The heading is reflected in the chart plotter which gives a bearing at same 150 degrees off of where it should be. I assume this is a Ray Marine compass calibration issue but am unsure how to reset. Any...
