    GPS for Ski Mode / Cruise Control

    As far as I know it was just replaced and remarried to engine. At least that was what I was told when I asked. I also was told that Scarab sent that cluster for replacement.

    GPS for Ski Mode / Cruise Control

    No, Scarab does not have a module. It is all in the gage cluster. I have a 2015 Scarab HO 165 and it did not have all the modes until I had the Cluster replaced under warranty, then I had it all. That is why I know that it is all in the cluster. You have an ECU for engine and the cluster for the...

    GPS for Ski Mode / Cruise Control

    Yes, they do. Both clusters have different part numbers. One is 024-0820 CLUSTER, GAUGE BRP 16 CRUISE #460957 and the other is 024-0821 CLUSTER, GAUGE BRP 16 FULL #460896

    GPS for Ski Mode / Cruise Control

    Those option are in the cluster, unless they changed the cluster they should still be there, maybe not married to the boat or not making good connection.

    Plugin the original flush port permanently, how did that work out for you?

    o2 sensors

    Water flows in water jackets in the cat. but is not mixed with the exhaust until after the cat.

    o2 sensors

    Salt should never be on the O2 sensor, if salt or even water is on it you have a leak somewhere in the exhaust.

    Rotax 4Tec 200 overheating

    Check the cap on the over flow tank. If it is loose the engine will heat up fast a hi RPMs. Had that happen to me and had it to dealer, and they said nothing was wrong. Tighten the cap and it was fixed.

    Trouble shooting switches

    I run the blower ALL the time the engine is running to keep the engine compartment cooler. It is recommended to run it before you start the engine and at idle. The only trouble I have had with the blower is with the switch. 258 hrs. The trick with the bilge pump is to keep it clean.

    Who loves their Scarab boat

    I love my 2015 Scarab 165 HO. 256 Hrs. 61/2 year old and still looks and runs like new. I boat in Tampa Bay and Gulf Of Mexico all in salt water. All I have done to the trailer is lights and tires. The boat gets oil change every 50 hrs. Supercharger rebuilt at 200 hrs. and coolant changed every...

    Flushing while on boat lift

    Do what ever you want, but I have been using mine for three years now and with no problems. It still flushes the exhaust and intercooler just fine, because water comes out of exhaust just as much as before. I had mine installed to make it easier than hooking it up underneath. I just thought you...

    Flushing while on boat lift

    I was told when mine was installed that you DO NOT plug the one underneath. yon leave that one alone.

    Flushing while on boat lift

    It looks like a flush port that someone lost the cap and rigged a replacement. If you look in the engine compartment to see where it goes or if you unscrew it and a garden hose screws in there, it will be the external flush port. I don't have a 195 Open but I had an external flush port installed...

    195 HO Overheating code p0217 question

    Paint striper will not hurt the heat exchanger, but I would make sure it does not come in contact with fiberglass. It should not be painted. One other thing that I ran into when my boat was new was a loose cap on the overflow tank. It would heat up at high RPM's then cool done when I slowed...

    165 ID Pulling Left

    Good Deal.

    165 ID Pulling Left

    How many people are in the boat? Just you? Sit in the middle and see the difference or have another person on the left. And when you are slowing down you have no steering. You have to be under power to steer.

    “Upgraded trailer”

    My suggestion, get a new trailer before you lose the boat.

    “Upgraded trailer”

    Sorry to hear that also, but I am not sure what you mean by upgraded trailer, but what I understand is the Scarab trailer has a limited warranty for only one year. I have a 2015 165 HO and boat in salt water all the time (TAMPA BAY, GULF OF MEXICO), and wash not just rinse boat and trailer every...

    2015 Scarab 165 HO I have 225 hours on mine, and LOVE it. I have only had minor issues with it, and nothing that has not been taken care of. ITS A BOAT.
