Ss175hw wiring to suit fcv295

[nicko]

Hi I’m chasing wiring info on a ss175hw into a 295
I also need to wire up the temp as well but not sure which wires to use
Can I also wire in the lf side of a m260

Thanks nick

Nicko,
The 175 should have a Blue/Black/shield bundle. Using the HF connector, Blue to pin-1, Black to pin-3 and the Shield (drain wire) to the chassis of the 295. The White and Brown wires should be the Temperature sensor. The temperature goes in on the six pin connector with White going to pin-2 and Brown to pin-3. Is you M-260 diplexed (two wire) or non-diplexed (four wires)?

Nicko,
I would agree, Diplexed.

So does that mean it can’t be used with a 295

Nicko,
It is up to you.
The M-260 wasn't designed to be used with the FCV-295. There is an impedance difference because of the diplexer plus its an in-hull transducer. If you connected it I am sure you would get some performance out of it, but how much is anybodies guess.
