Install the Choke Cable
Reduce noise interference (if needed) using the included choke cable.
1. Determine Whether to Install the Choke Cable
If an on-board charger is present and attached to the cranking battery,
install the
choke cable (included) to reduce noise interference in the transducer.
If there is not an on-board charger connected to the cranking battery,
the choke
cable is not required.
2. Install the Choke Cable
Use the following instructions to install the choke cable.
Supplies:
Wire cutter, wire stripper, wire crimper, safety glasses, protective gloves,
and a heating agent.
WARNING!
Disconnect the power source for all related equipment before you
start the installation.
1. Disconnect the on-board charger from the main power source.
2. Disconnect the charger cable from the cranking battery.
3. Use a wire cutter to cut the charger cable between the fork in the output cable
and the fuse holder. The fuse holder should always remain within 7" of the
battery terminals.
