KWB is good about using a good size pipe so not too hard. OP there will be a РІР‚Сљrigging tubeРІР‚Сњ aka PVC pipe running from the bilge area to the console with all current cables/wire in it. Mjw930, what were you connecting the Lowrance to? A Suzuki motor? TheyРІР‚в„ўre researching it further and hopefully get it sorted out.Р”Вoes anyone else have a Suzuki DF175ATXW2? Does it have digital connection ability? The parts manager seemed to believe that the model number had to contain the letter РІР‚ВAРІР‚в„ў to be a digital motor. I understand the difference between analog and digital but assumed (mistake) from what IРІР‚в„ўve read so far and from the input here on the KW forum that a new 2019 175HP motor had digital connection ports.

I had no idea so they looked it up but still werenРІР‚в„ўt sure. He asked if my Suzuki was a РІР‚ВdigitalРІР‚в„ў motor. OK, I went by the dealer today and talked with the parts manager about getting the right cables for the Suzuki to Simrad GO9 connection and to see if theyРІР‚в„ўd do it for me when I bring her in for the 20 hour maintenance. Oct 06, 2019The fact this is for a Lowrance is irrelevant, it describes whatРІР‚в„ўs needed to set up the NMEA 2000 bus so you can connect to the MFD (Simrad) So far, the only access to the bilge that IРІР‚в„ўve located is the port over the fuel tank and the hatch just forward of the transom.Р”Р„ny help or directions to a site than gives instructions is greatly appreciated. Then, in general to the forum, how do you run ANY wiring through the bilge on KWРІР‚в„ўs? IРІР‚в„ўd like to wire a trolling motor from the bow to the battery bank in the console and the data cable from the transom to the center console. Information from Suzuki is sorely lacking. So my question to the forum has anyone done this and could they PM me and lead me through the process? Pictures of the connection port on the Suzuki would be great. Then, that connects to the simrad and IРІР‚в„ўll have all my engine data. Then, somehow, IРІР‚в„ўve got to run that cable through the bilge (another quandary) to the center console and connect to a NMEA РІР‚ВbackboneРІР‚в„ў. IРІР‚в„ўve found a very few U-tube videos that have given me a rough idea that I need a connection cable that hooks into a sending unit on the engine, a data port I believe. However, I realize the Simrad can do so much more if properly connected to the Suzuki engine.

The dealer installed the GO9 and transducer, which is working great. Has any one connected a Suzuki 175DF to a Simrad GO9 on a KW 203FS (or similar?
