⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Interceptor dead or working only intermittently
• Connector pins green, powdery or loose in their housing
• Insulation chafed, cut or cracked along the run
• Slow or weak blade movement from voltage lost in the cable
• Cable stiff and cracking where it has been flexed

🛠️ Service Notes

• The 4.0 m version of the same cable is 3817172 - measure the run, as length is the only difference between them
• The Boat Trim System uses this 4-pole cable at the interceptors and a separate 6-pole cable elsewhere in the system, so check the pole count as well as the length
• Route the cable clear of chafe points and keep the connections dry
• Two lengths are listed: 3817172 is the 4.0 m version - measure the run before ordering
• The ordering guide takes two cables for a two-interceptor installation and four for a four-interceptor installation
