Can anyone with experience lend me some guidance on installing the OEM SeaDoo depth finder system on my 2006 RXT? The instructions only include pics of it being installed in an RXP model (though it is for both the RXP and RXT models according to the instructions!). The wiring harness when run as the instructions indicate (as near as I can tell) doesn't begin to make it up to the MPEM module, and frankly I'm a bit uncertain how to find the correct wires to splice it in to... this is where I'm needing some guidance!
I have the transducer mount epoxied to the bottom of the hull in it's correct location and orientation, the transducer and gel-pad installed firmly in the mount against the bottom of the hull, the wiring harness run and zip tied as per the instructions and pics of an RXP installation... now I'm at the point where I'm supposed to cut 2 wires very close to the MPEM module and splice them into the depth finder's wiring harness, but it ends almost 2 feet short of the MPEM (though I suspect the wires I need to cut and splice in to are probably in their harness somewhere nearby the end of the depth finder harness... I just need help figuring out where they are!).
Any help from someone who'd accomplished this task would be greatly appreciated!
ps. I realize it'll still need to be activated by a dealership with their BUDDS system, I just hoped to have all the manual labor of installing it correctly already done so maybe I won't have to leave it with them...
