Standard Horizon SL45 Knot Log Anomalies
I have a SL45 installed in a sailboat and it has worked perfectly up
until I took the boat into salt water. At sea it indicates 0.0 but back in fresh water it starts up again and works normally. Obviously there's a short to ground in the sender although I don't think it has a leak. Has anyone seen this effect? Either I'll have to go back into salt to measure the current drain differences then paint the thing with rubber to try and isolate it else buy another sender and hope it's an isolated condition. thanks, Dave |

You just have to be fast to get the dumby plug in the hole. Matt |
