    Hello Tony, Rob, Corey and rest of tne team and forum.

    I’ve replaced the Smartcraft VV with the 403’s and I’m very happy with them cause I can now see ALL the data at daylight with no issues and better yet in full color; however, the technician told me that the harness has NO connectors to install external (loud audible) alarm buzzers, so if something goes wrong and my eyes are not on the 403 screens, I’m not able to realize there is a problem (ex: high temp)Ā  until the engine shuts down for auto protection or start to drop rpm’s.

    Is there a way to install external buzzers?

     

    Tks in advance for your comments.

    Any any engine you can always go with an external alarm system as covered in this artice.Ā  That is always the best as you can customize everything.Ā  As to tapping into your system to trigger an audible alarm I am not sure and maybe Corey can advise on that.
