This winter I sent my knot meter and depth meter to DMI to get it fixed. I installed it and yesterday I put the batteries back on the boat. To my surprise it still was not working. I got nothing on the knot meter and a little on my depth meter, then I got nothing on both. I checked the juice going into the instruments and I got .20. Everything else on the boat seems to be working properly. Any ideas?????

Thanks Ken

readings like that are just "noise", you got nothing. Grab some wire and run a temp power lead to test the gauges, then trouble shoot your permanent wires.

Check for a bad ground and check for bad contact at the fuse or in the fuse holder for the instruments
