Anyone try using one of these yet? I am replacing my dash and gauges this winter thinking of using the AEM display and the 22 channel can sensor.

If I was redoing a dash , thats the route I`d go.
Like it a lot .

bBeing old and challenged, WTF is a 22 channel can sensor? And as a multi Fountain owner how does it make your boat perform better?

I ask only because the engines are currently out of the Biotch for a spiff up, and we have considered a little upgrade. Hence the question about the can sensor power adder.

The 22 channel can sensor module is to turn the signals from your analog gauge senders to digital signals so the digital display can use it correctly and display accordingly when you don't have EFI. Wire oil psi, Oil temp, water temp, EGT, AFR, knock... to it and then it converts the signals and sends them to the digital dash. (quick version)

CAN for most marine OEMs started in 2001 for MPI engines.

The AEM unit is also for EFI / MPI and carb engines.

The most common user and seller for AEM products by far on the marine side is Boostpower aka Alexi S. I would buy from him and that would get you all the know how needed for questions and installs. I am sure it would be really hard buying online to get tech help after fact. Just saying.

I'm running the AEM CD-7 dash with logger and vehicle dynamics module in my boat. Also running the AEM Infinity ECM's. Alexi at Boostpower built my engines and is providing everything. He actually worked with AEM on the R&D of their marine products.

AEM makes an adapter that will allow you to plug in one of their ECM's in directly to a MEFI wiring harness. Makes upgrading to a modern engine management system a snap.

Sounds like a winner. I let everyone know how it works out.

I do not believe so. In my opinion the display would be a bit small for twins. I went with 2 CD5 displays.
