Frequently Asked Questions

Cable Specific Questions

We get many requests to build to sample, firstly, we have to try and identify the cable with any markings/brandings that may exist on the cable conduit. If you are unsuccessful with this, take a photo of each end of the cable and email it to any of the contact details listed below followed by a brief description of what the cable does/operates. Be sure to also specify the cable length which is normally measured from tip to tip. Our sales department will be in contact with you if any further information is required.

Generally, most cables are measured tip to tip, but sometimes this is not the case. Again, take a photo of each end of the cable, specify the tip to tip length of the cable and email it to your sales contact. Our sales department will be in contact with you if any further information is required

Wiper Specific Questions

Yes we have a large range of wipers to suit your marine needs

Wiper blades are vehicle specific. The passenger and driver’s side wiper blades are the same size on some vehicles, while on others they are vastly different. … If the blades are too long, they can also hit each other, tangle up, and possibly damage the wiper blades, arms, and even the wiper motor and transmission.
Wiper blades should be replaced every six months to a year or as soon as you notice a difference in driving visibility. When wiper blades no longer make proper contact with the windshield surface, they can begin to squeak, chatter, skip, smear or streak reducing driving visibility
Wiper arm length is measured as the straight line distance from the center of the pivot shaft to the center of connection to the wiper blade.  The bridge width between the driver and idler of a pantograph arm is also measured “center to center.”
What if there’s a bend in the arm, as pictured below?  The same advice applies.  To determine the arm’s length, simply measure the straight line distance from the center of the pivot to the center of the wiper blade connection.

Oil pressure gauge not working: The causes for this range from a faulty gauge to the need for an oil change. … Oil pressure gauge reading too low, generally below 15 to 20 PSI while idling. Cold weather can also make the oil pressure read low until the oil pump has had a chance to deliver the oil to the engine
