Where might I look for a replacement display or am I out of luck and might as well get use to half my gauges working?

    My frustration with the old Faria gauges led me to a 2004 version of Mercruisers Smartcraft dash display found on Ebay NIB for about $200 with cabling. See my boat spec in my signature below.

    All the right info direct from my unused engine computer info rather than those da%&* Faria gauges is a frikkin wonderment.

    Good luck in your search. Mike

    It was so simple that even a caveman could do it. Really, it's all laid out in the "smartcraft" thread linked below.
    Good luck and welcome to the forum, Mike

    Thanks for the info that does look easy.  I found a company that rebuilds the old displays I might have to try your solution.
