## 🔌 Function

Corrodes in place of the drive's own metal, giving up material to protect the housings and gears and backing up the powered corrosion protection system.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Anode wasted away or almost gone at haul-out
-   Anode still bright after a season, meaning it is not making electrical contact
-   White or green corrosion, blistered paint or pitting appearing on the drive housing
-   Anode loose on its studs or its mounting face corroded

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   A twin Aquamatic sterndrive installation carries two back-up anodes, so order accordingly
-   Nothing is consumed while the active system is driving current, so heavy wastage points at a system that has been off or in monitoring-only mode
-   The mounting face must be clean bare metal, and the anode must never be painted
-   Protection falls back onto this anode when the active system is in monitor-only mode or inactive
