I have traded in the old '87 sea ray and got a new '04 VIP Viva. Everything
about it is great so far. When I demoed the boat the speedometer wasnt
going. The dealer said its because it was just not ever hooked up when they
prepped the boat for me to demo.

When we docked he showed me the cable in the back of the stern drive. It
was not plugged in, he said it comes from the factory like that. So he
plugged it in.

When I took it out later after purchasing the boat the speedo is still not
working. I unplugged the speedo cable when I got home and blew through the
sterndrive. Nothing seem to be obstructing it and nothing blew out.

Any ideas as to why its not working? Is there any way to set off hte speedo
out of the water to see if it works? I tried blowing into the tube going to
the speedo but it didnt do anything.

I know the dealer would fix it but they wont be open till monday, and then
its a hassle to go over there if its a 2 second fix!

Thanks!
