      Hmmmm, necro-post from someone who joined and posted within one minutes, and hasn’t been back since. I smell something fishy. 

      Exactly what I was thinking.

    • I like it.  I'd barefoot from it.  Consider running the forward line directly to the bow eye to get good force distribution. 

      Upload your video to YouTube and then link it here.  Don't forget to change the permissions so we can see it.

    • For 38 years I have always used a Danforth style anchor with 20 feet of chain. Used this in the chuck, lakes and rivers, with fast flowing current and various bottom compositions. Have never once had a problem. Even had multiple boats tied up to us with only our anchor out.

      I hear these box anchors don't require a chain but believe all anchors should have a chain to keep it digging into the bottom.

      Strictly my opinion. Not going to change what has worked flawlessly over the years.

    • This is the first time I have seen this fault message come up when trying to deploy the wedge.  I can see from under the boat that the wedge may have dropped down 3" from its stored position and now I can't get it to go back up.

      I have not tried to troubleshoot anything yet. It does sit on a hydrohoist during the off season and this was the first time I was using it for this season.

      Is there a simple way to manually get the wedge to back up into the stored position so I can use the boat even without the wedge?

      I haven't found any decent troubleshooting videos so far other than one that tells me to check the fuse in the red fuse holder under the dash near the control box (I can do that this weekend).  What else am I going to be looking for?  I don't recall if there is a fuse also in the 2 fuse boxes under the dash (very difficult to access).

      How about the actuators themselves?  I have not found any videos covering how to replace an actuator.  The outside actuator mechanical replacement seems simple but wondering how I get the control wires/harness through the hull.

      Thanks and sorry for not probably doing more of an extensive search.

      Alternative, does anybody know of an authorized malibu repair shop in the Discovery Bay, CA area?

      Thank you

      Take a look at?  Or is it the correct one?

      Should be the correct one. Wouldn't be a bad idea to take the old one to the parts store to confirm.

       

      The GM part number for it is 12622308
