Noise Interference Temp Probe

[Irish 1-3]

Just added newer kicker with electric start and my probe doesn’t work now when I run the kicker. I’ve checked all the wiring for continuity. Wondering if issue is caused by kicker since it uses stator & regulator in lieu of an alternator? Can I use a ferrite ring to eliminate issue?

I wires for new motor are coming in contact with wire for temp unit or even close may have to shield them. Sometimes it is as easy as wrapping them in aluminum foil or routing them differently if you have 2 batteries make sure power for temp unit is coming from opposite battery as the kicker

I have a 9.9 pro kicker electric start with alternator and my transducer for fish hawk is near motor and no issues. Is transducer in prop wash...could be problem?. You can try a ferrite ring. Did probe work same location before kicker? Wire temporarily probe/head unit to a separate battery not tied into charging system and see if that works and you can narrow down issue.
