I have a Sea Rat 290 Sundancer and the dashboard fuel gauge and SmartCraft fuel gauge stopped working. I do not see a fuse for it. Any ideas on where to start?
Thanks

there is no fuse for fuel gauge.
I assume you didn't "play" with smartcraft and disabled fuel sender by accident.
99% sender needs to be replaced or maybe it got somehow disconnected (there is a plug on sender cables - they only few inches long)
 
I just purchased the boat and I was playing with the smartcraft the day before. I'll go to the boat tomorrow and check the plugs for the smartcraft and I did see the section on the installation manual that shows how to initialize and program the unit. It does not look that complicated. But first I'll try to back track what programs I played with.
 
Are the gauges working? i.e. speedo, etc. If not, then you will need to re-seat the SmartGuage connector. I had a similar problem and have seen several other posts with the same problem. Seems to be a manuf issue
