6.2L Mercruiser
Ok I bought a 2003 Sundancer 260. Verified that my 6.2L was smartcraft capable, and just hooked up the vessle view bluetooth module. For anyone that is thinking of ding this, be patient if your vin is 0M3 or higher you should have a 8 pin connecter for the module. It took me awhile but was behind the ECU, and about 1 foot lower, in the middle of a bunch of wires. Kinds near the port side spark plud wires. Has purple weather cap, make sure to purchase a yellow resistor terminator.

Anyway hooked up and I have the following codes:

1012-24, engine or drive trim position. Which makes sense as my trim gauge is all over the place. And doesnt seem to read from trimed all the way down to the middle point.

541-24, sea water temperature

1031-25, steering position

701-24, level senser tank A. My fuel gauge appears to be working just fine

451-25, pitot pressure

Any info on these, causes, fixes, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

The first question is do those sensors exist on your boat? If not then they just need to be programmed as blocked. Otherwise I don't know. I had three sensors needing blocking since they did not exist in the system. Blocked all good.

All of those gauges are analog, smartcraft can’t see them. You can switch to digital and replace the gauges at the helm, but most folks just keep the analog gauges.

you can just block those faults in the app.
 
Likely Those codes appear to be sensors that your boat doesnt have. My prior Rinker 342 Fiesta Vee threw the same codes all the time and mechanic told me "they were always there because your boat doesnt have those sensors".
