Trim Position Sensor
For information on the trim position sensor, refer to the appropriate section of this manual:
• Section 6C ‑ Conventional Midsection (CMS) Power Trim
• Section 6D ‑ Advanced Midsection (AMS) Power Trim
Water‑in‑Fuel (WIF) Sensor
IMPORTANT: SeaPro models are equipped with a vessel mounted water‑separating fuel filter that has a water‑in‑fuel (WIF)
sensor located on the filter drain knob. The engine mounted WIF sensor on SeaPro models is disconnected and is not used.
The water‑in‑fuel (WIF) sensor is a normally open switch with two highly conductive probes. Water completes a 5‑volt negative
reference to the PCM. When water is present, the PCM generates an error history and activates a warning horn to inform the
operator. If SmartCraft gauges are installed, the display will flash a visual warning to the operator.
