the transom.
Route the sensor cable over the transom, through a drain hole, or
through a hole that you have drilled in the transom above the
waterline.
1. Place the sensor against the hull and mark the position of the
screw holes with a pencil.
2. Using a 3mm or 1/8" drill bit, drill pilot holes at the marked
locations, 10mm (3/8") deep.
3. Apply marine sealant to the threads of the purchased screws
to prevent water from seeping into the transom.
4. Screw the temperature sensor to the hull.
5. If a hole must be drilled through the transom, choose a
location well above the waterline. Check for obstructions
such as trim tabs, pumps, or wiring inside the hull. Mark the
location with a pencil. Drill a hole through the transom using
the appropriate size hole saw or spade bit (to accommodate
the connector). Do NOT remove the connector.

Cable Routing & Connecting
1. Route the cable to the instrument, being careful not to tear the
cable jacket when passing it through the bulkhead(s) and other
parts of the boat. To reduce electrical interference, separate
the sensor cable from other electrical wiring and sources of
noise. Coil any excess cable and secure it in place with cable
ties to prevent damage.
2. Refer to the instrument owner's manual to connect the sensor
to the instrument.
Replacement Sensor & Parts
The information needed to order a replacement sensor is printed
on the cable tag. Do not remove this tag. When ordering, specify
the part number and date. For convenient reference, record this
