Looking for a TAPS 1 Gauge

[WR_Rob]

Looking for a TAPS 1 gauge, the one that works with the older Bennett hydraulic tab. It has a black rim and a white face. . Boat is a '96 2100wt.

Thanks!

Thanks for the link, appreciate it. However, I bought this one and I believe it's for TAPS 2, as it only has one sending wire. The one I need has 2 sending wires and is for the older Bennett hydraulic tab system.

Anyone out there know where I can locate one?

Thanks,

Any luck finding a Taps 1 gauge? I need to replace mine as well or find a work around for a new gauge...

Can anyone tell me how to wire a TAPS 1 gauge, I bought a 1998 2100v and wires were disconnected? Thanks.

I am not sure which one we have but I bought one I don't need. It has black trip with white face
I can take a pick of the gauge tonight.

Please post a pic of the white gauge, if Rob doesn't want it, I might...

I'm in the same boat...I've been looking for a dual post gauge for about a year now(I have a post on this site about it). I too ordered the one from OEM and it's the single post model and therefore, can't get it to work. At this point I'll take any trim gauge that would work. I just want to be able to see where my plate is in relation to its swing. Keep us posted if you find anything.

I guess you could call Bennett, Faria, VDO or teleflex. None of the pictures show the back of the gauge. Maybe you have already tried some of these?
Or you could order the Bennett or Faria gauges from West marine and return them if they won't work.

The terminals are likely marked.

Purple wire might be switched B+. or test for a wire thats got 12V when key is on
blue might be for gauge illumination. Again test for 12V when the NAV lights are on
black will be for illumination ground
This leaves the wire from the actuator.

start by eliminating the 2 bulb terminals, leaving you with the 2 that make the needle move. Now is just a matter of figuring out which is the B+ and which is the signal.
