You'll get a new "red plug" with your new device, but be sure to test your batteries and wiring. I rewire yak and replace SLA batteries every season. Also keep in mind you will be tripling your amps pretty much. Need at least 12v 12ah for a 7ti to work all day.

A lot of times westmarine will just replace shit, when actually the product being replaced was not the issue to begin with. Customer service is so good, maybe too good haha.
I'm an electrician, so yes I tried everything(even bought a new battery). I own two hobie pro anglers and have had problems with this one unit, but thanks for your two cents.
