I finally got around to fixing the old Kenyon Knotmeter in my paceship py23. The knob in the back was a bit hard to get moving but with a little bit of WD-40 it got going.
My questions are:
1-Does anyone know how its supposed to be wired? I'm assuming the spots labeled + and - are from the battery. Then the spot labeled SH is the shield wire coming from the little through hull wheel and the spot labeled CT is the inner wire. Is that correct? Is there something that should be at the last spot that isn't labeled?
2-What does the dial do? I know its labeled ON and LIGHTS, but why does it seem like its adjustable? Is the knotmeter always on?
3-Is there a way to bench test it? Also, is there a way to test the thru hull mounted wheel (transducer)?
Any help would be MUCH appreciated!
