Electric Hatch Actuator replacement

I replaced mine with the Warner linear units linked above... nearly a straight forward swap, but I needed to get some stainless steel extension sleeves as the diameter of the actuator is just a few mm bigger.... Any stainless Shop can provide this.

They work much better and sound very comfortable lifting the hatch.
 
The actuator on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Warner-Linea...003XT6B2G/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 that others are reporting to be using does state to be ignition protected. Can someone confirm?

Update: I checked with the manufacturer and the actuator listed on Amazon is not rated for marine use. The model number for marine is K2G20-12VM-BR-18, has ignition protection, cost is $626.69 each and has a lead time of 24 weeks.

I have a diesel, so no idea if ignition protected. They work. Your other opportunity is to contact Shelley for the OEM ones.

The OEM for SR was this company. Shelley was very difficult for me to get a hold of, but she sold me 2 foe my 420DA. I bought 2-from Amazon because I had to have them quick. The OEM ones were night and day better than the ones from Amazon…..here is the info for you to contact her….

Great -- thank you! Mine works but sometimes will stop a couple times part way down. I have a feeling it's on the way out and I should do something about it now :eek:

She is the one you have to talk to and she can be harder than hell to get her to respond. I left voice mails and emails relentlessly and it took a week or two before she contacted me. Once she did, smooth sailing… actually bought them in the spring of 2021 and just installed them a couple months ago. I believe shipped to me they were like $750 or so. No clue what they might cost now, but certainly not $800 for one….

Blueone is actually who turned me on to her…..

Hi
Any new contacts to get those actuators? Shelly's emails are bouncing back, probably left the job :(

I just replaced mine (2006 / 340) with 2 new from Prince William Marine in Virginia. Marina brole one when removing an engine when doing transoms. Not cheap. The marina replaced mine though.
