Nautique 196 - PCM PRO boss 40 gt efi

Cool.

I'll check you out on your other thread.

Here's the direct link:

Thanks for the update. Keep plugging away as you can.

Need to take a couple of steps back here.

The GT40 has a engine wiring loom that goes from the ECM back to all the sensors, breakers etc in the engine bay. There is also another wiring loom that goes from the engine back to the dash area.(in a normal analog gauges and breaker panel with ignition switch setup).

In your case this will more than likely go back to the PME distribution box.


Nicola get some more pictures for us:-

1. Firstly The wiring loom the previous owner was making.

2. Picture of wiring at rear of dash pod (I think some digital gauges have been replaced already)

3. The wiring and plugs from PXE gateway box.

4. Picture of "10 way" plug that goes from engine to dash both ends.(see explanation below)

I think the previous owner may have been looking at replacing wiring loom at the PXE to avoid purchasing a replacement unit. It could be done but will entail a full rewire with standard breakers, gauges and ignition switch.

The GT40 wiring loom on the engine has a plug that then goes to dash panel. It is somewhat of a standard PCM setup. This wiring loom could be custom made locally but get a picture as you may already have this wiring but just need to modify it somewhat at the Gateway box and dash. The GT40 manual refers to this loom as the 10 way connector. Skidim refer to it as a eight prong plug harness.

Happy to test your ECM for you PM me and I will send you my address.

Thanks so much for all ya input ! Really amazing.

Would it be possible to this engine to wire it up so it could run with out the wirring loom?

It could be really good with org gauges but i Think i go with new analogs.

Good eye.

Yeah, I would think it might be easier to just go traditional with the Fuel, Temp, Oil Pressure, and Voltage Gauges and Tach. Just pick a set (or individual pieces) with the right sizing for the cutouts and complimentary color scheme.

Then, you could go with either a Precision Star Speedo or go Full Stargazer with it if he wants speed control as well. Actually, the Stargazer would take care of Tachometer duties as well.

If you go about half way down the 1st page of this Fish Nautique Thread you can get some wiring inspiration. It looks daunting, but definitely more cost effective than trying to recreate the factory installation in this case.

You might want to decide if replacing the PME Gateway Box is really the way you want to go.

That method will allow you to keep using the touchpads... but, there's a high probability that those will be toast as well.

Also, what year is this boat? It's in the era of problematic speedos, if it's a 2000 or 2001.

Usually this site always preaches to keep it original, but in this case, that may be impractical.

You might want to just wire up the whole thing from scratch, go kind of old school with it.

Take a look at this page:
Skidim Wiring Stuff

They sell a pre-wired instrument kit. Then, you could maybe get a Stargazer Perfect Pass to add in for your Speedometer/Speed Control.

Drawings? No drawings here but I got pics. Looks like a 2000, which mine is also, with the same beam, so I assume the platforms will be the same. I'm sure Tim will correct me if I'm wrong.

Congratulations on the new boat, can't wait to see you bring it back to life!

Wirenet???? Do you mean wiring loom?

The Ebox is the PME "Gateway" power distribution box.

My plan was to dismount the engine this winter and repaint it and change the things there needs to be changed.

Like lewy said, YES, it being a gt40 makes it much easier to repair and get parts for. I'd send the guys at skidim an email and they can probably direct you to where to find that replacement breaker for cheap.

And YES being a gt40 it does NOT have protec. Again that's a big plus for you.

Yes, the seller told mé it Was a gt 40 engine.

Is it only a efi engine then ? With out protec?

What does the protec dó?

Thanks

I hope you're good with electrical wiring. I think that thing is going to be a wiring/electrical nightmare.
