Wake Plate Gauge
My wake plate potion gauge does not indicate where the wake plate is positioned. I think the gauge has power to it because the light comes on in the gauge.. it just reads 0 no matter where the plate is positioned.
Any suggestions on where to start my trouble shooting?RIDE: 2002 Moomba Mobius V

Loose wire? work around the back of the gauge.. I bet that is what is the issue..

I had the same issue last summer. If I remember correctly, there are 2 wires coming from the gauge and they are spliced together. I just cut both splices out and re-spliced them. Worked like a charm ever since. They were bundled up with wire ties but once you cut those, they are easily accessible. The whole fix took 10 mins. Hope that helps...

Hey guys.. Is this the same set up for the newer gauges? Like an 08 wake plate gauge?

I would think so. Mine is an 06 and I don't think they changed anything on the wakeplates until 09 and that was only with the cylinder, not the gauge.
