Were you ever able to find a replacement rheostat/winding strip? Very frustrating as that's all that is wrong with my sending unit and I can't find that one piece. Thanks.
@@Michaelsbackyardmarina The whole unit or were you able to just get the winding strip? It comes out so easily (the metal strip) I can't believe they don't just sell that one piece! Thanks for the reply.
Lamp cord? Marine cable is 105deg C rated. Also lamp cord is not wet rated. Guys do not do this. Get marine rated wire. I get that this is only a sender but this wire is toast in a fault situation.
I was looking at mine the other day. I totally thought they looked like lamp cord so I get it. Being an electrical designer though, I know to select wire rated for the application. I’ll be going off shore once my rig is done. So there is no way I’d risk my life on a lamp cord.
Rebuilt mine worked once bought new- piece of cake to get that drive and bell off - leave bellows hooked up
sounds good

Been working fine for 3 years now. I agree it's not marine grade wire. People can make the choice.
When and if it fails it won't fail as hard as the original did as you can see in the video.

The reason this cord is deteriortaing is electrolysis...12 vdc going into the water.
