So dewinterized engines yesterday, turned on the GPS and I am not getting any data from the engines to the GPS. The Northstar GPS units of this era display Smartcraft data. It worked fine when I winterized. GPS seems to be communicating fine. Could the gateway die over the winter? Mine is the old Northstar dual engine gateway. Any ideas on how to test what is not working. GPS communicates fine with the radio with NMEA and everything else works fine.
They don't make this gateway anymore and I am not sure if the new gateway would work with the older Northstar GPS. Also not sure how to test whether the gateway is fried or the problem is with the GPS.
