Hello everyone, I am new to posting on a forum, but I am desperate for some help. I have a 2008 Malibu wake setter VTX (20'). I took the boat in to have some speakers swapped and an amp added and while doing the install, the wedge Lenco actuators started making a loud noise. They thought it was pump or blower and turned the battery power off after about 5-10 min. I quickly found that the noise was coming from the actuators and there was a vibration as if they were trying to activate. I deployed the wedge, but I can't put the wedge back up. I have spoken to a few mechanics, the local dealer and Bake's and everyone points the finger at the stereo installer, but they claim to only have connected directly to the batteries and the amp directly to the stock JBL unit and didn't touch anything on the driver's side. So, I had everything put back to stock and we still have the same noise. I disconnected one of the actuators and it has the noise and vibration, but it does not move back and forth. No one can figure out why they are making the noise without pushing the buttons to go up or down. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Dave
