    I see there are also some 60 MPH models (example:Faria 33749) - i would guess the displayed speed would not be accurate if a 60 mph model was used.
    I took this one:

    SilentSeven - I took a Faria Chesapeake SS Black NautiqueJeff - thank you !


    I exchanged the stepper motor on the oil pressure gauge today and will report tomorrow whether it works again.

    Nice. What model Faria GPS speedometer did you use?

    Hello,

    I would like to shortly introduce myself. I'm Christian from Germany and I have a Super Air 210 built in 2004

    I found this post because my oil pressure gauge failed.
    The pointer twitches but it shows nothing. I once ordered a new stepper motor.

    As a precaution, I removed the pitot tubes from the gateway box. Unfortunately, the speedometer does not work anymore.

    I solved the problem that the speedometer no longer works like this:

    1. Faria GPS speedometer bought and opened
    2. Open the Nautique speedometer and remove the stepper motor
    3. Stepper motor from the GPS speedometer screwed onto the board of the Nautique speedometer. (Same design)
    4. The connection cable from the GPS board to the stepper motor is soldered on

    The GPS board is then outside the speedometer.
    The cover in the speedometer must be edited so that the GPS speedometer can carry out its self-test.

    Maybe that will help someone if they want to get their speedometer working again and drive without the pitot hoses

    Sorry for the bad english - google translator

    Greetings from Germany
    Christian

    Ok. The title of the post is "Repair for Dead Gauges on 2003-2006 Nautiques Caused by Bad Faria Gateway", so I was hoping I'd be good with an '07. Where are the pickup(s) I don't see any on the boat.
    Edit: I just contorted and found the Faria Gateway under my helm. I see nothing but electrical connections--no pitot tubes (if there are pitot tubes, they are smaller than any I've ever seen and look like electrical wires).

    I do not believe so, I don;t think it was changed until 09 or 10. If all your guages are currently working, I would disconnect and plug your pitot tubes and use the ZeroOff for your speed.

    So, complete newb here, unfortunately diving down the rabbit hole of all the expensive things that could happen to my new baby. Mine is an '07. Was this issue fixed in the '07 model year?

    I removed the pitot water tubes to the Faria box this AM. Found out that micro irrigation 'goof plugs' work nicely to block off the tubes. I ended up removing the tube ends from both the Faria box side and the pitot side and blocking both ends.

    Here's what I used -
