BillAV8R1 Posted May 31, 2020 Report Share Posted May 31, 2020 Is there a video on the MBG site that shows exactly how to run the live wells on board a 2016 2200 TRS? I think I’ve seen a video showing the installation, but I’m looking for some instruction. - especially as it relates to the control panel. Thanks!

jh141 Posted May 31, 2020 Report Share Posted May 31, 2020 There are Vids on how they operate but not as to how to operate them. Post whatever questions you have. There are some very savvy live bait guys on the forum that can help. Give a quick description of your set up. They can be rigged differently from the factory. Example: my 2200 trs has one livewell in the center of the rear deck. It has two pumps. One picks up new water from the sea chest and pumps it to the livewell. It is controlled by a switch on the panel labeled LW-1. I leave it on whenever there is bait in the well and the boat is in the water. The other pump is a recirculate pump. It is controlled by a switch labled recirc-1. I use this when I am using the LW-1 and want more water movement OR when the livewell is closed off to new water pick up and at least 1/4 full and I need to oxygenate or circulate the water. Some also have a bubbler. This is great for when the well is closed to new water and has a low water level for things such as crabs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutch03 Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 Bill. I put a relatively inexpensive bubbler system on my 2200v when my recirculating pump died and it works great. It was very simple to install and has alligator clips to hook to battery when I wish to use it. FYI my battery is 3 ft from the livewell...

BillAV8R1 Posted June 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 Jh141 - do you know where livewell demo part 1 is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jh141 Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 I am not sure there ever was a part 1. I have never been able to get the link to work. I have a 2012 2200 TRS and have tweaked my livewell. If you have any questions I can help with let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
