You should apply dielectric grease to the pin holes on the cable connector to prevent corrosion, especially if
you are using the autopilot system in saltwater.
Connecting the Drive Actuator and Throttle Actuator
You should install the drive actuator and throttle actuator on the motor before connecting them to the ECU.
1 Route the drive actuator cable to the drive actuator and to the ECU, and make sure there is enough slack in
the cable to allow for the motor to turn fully port and starboard.
This cable cannot be extended, so if it is not long enough, you must relocate the ECU, extending the ECU
power cable if necessary
2 Connect the drive actuator cable to the drive actuator and to the ECU.
You should apply dielectric grease to the pin holes on the cable connector to prevent corrosion, especially if
you are using the autopilot system in saltwater.
3 Route the throttle actuator cable from inside the motor housing to the ECU, and make sure there is enough
slack in the cable to allow for the motor to turn fully port and starboard.
