This is located in a dry area and can usually be found inside the
center console, in the area behind the dash, or in a compartment
near the engines or batteries. The PCM is always located close to
the Hydraulic Pumps. There will be one PCM on twin engine boats
and two PCM’s on triple or quad engine boats. The PCM controls the
steering and Joystick operation.
The Hydraulic Steering Pumps supply pressurized fluid to the
SmartCylinders to steer the engine and are located near the PCM.
They can usually be found in a compartment near the engines, the
center console or behind the dash. There is one pump for each
engine. Note: these pumps look a lot like the trim pumps that tilt
the engines but can be distinguished by the decal and the green/
blue SeaStar Electronic Power Steering Fluid. The pumps have the
steering fluid reservoir and this is where the fluid level is checked
and steering fluid is added.
