I have had speedo problems for years. This Winter, I disconnected tubes from the back of the speedo's and from the pick-ups and blew out the debris with compressed air. Took the boat out and I have one speedo working and one not working. What am I missing?

Did you clean out the pick-ups?

If you think the lines, etc are all clear, you might try switching the lines at the back of the speedos. If the problems stays with the same speedo, the problem is the speedo. If it goes with the lines, it is a problem in the lines.

Without knowing the air pressure used, how can you make this statement??

even the canned air stuff is too much
because most people fire up their air tanks and go to town!
