    2006 Faria box glitchy or gauges?

    My 2006 220 SAN temp and voltage analog gauge were dead at start up. LCD was semi faded out. Fuel gauge and oil pressure (both analog) were alive from start up. I ran the boat for 10 minutes in the sun, temp gauge camp alive and LCD cleared up and read clear, voltage (analog) still dead. All gauges worked fine during Labor day. No pitot tubes on this box, do you guys think ground wires or do I need to open the Faria box?

    LCD fade would point more towards gauge failure. For the gauges that just do not work, have you checked all the connections into the gateway itself, verify everything is plugged in and fully inserted.

      I've checked all the Faria box connections, but I'll double check them! I have not checked the grounds yet, I hope my LCD gauge isn't bad! Not sure about the availability of a new gauge.

        Quinner, thanks for the advice! All the connectors male and female were clean, but a little bit of plugging and unplugging made the LCD come alive. RPM gauge is still jumpy, possibly going bad, however, I can get the RPM's through the perfect pass. My volt gauge is dead, but I can order another one through White Lake marine. Thanks again.
