Not sure how it would work with the additional weight of a boat. I do know that it is one of my favorite features. I still don't know how steep something needs to be in order for it to kick in, or even how it senses that it should kick in. But, if I'm on a hill and come to a stop, then remove my foot from the brake, it stays put (the brake pedal remains where I left it). It's entirely brake based only. Not sure if this will help?PFhopefull wrote:Just wondering if any body uses this feature when launching a boat on a steep ramp? I could see this being a great feature for this very reason, but wonder if it was made for this? Does the system calculate the incline and weight or does it just spit out a set # of rpm's to hold the vehicles own weight, Hope this question make sense. Let me know if I need to elaborate myself. Thanks
I'm pretty sure I found out a while back it was a mercury-type switch calibrated so you needed to be at X% grade before it would complete the circuit. But like Steve said, its brake based and has nothing to do with revving the engine and using the transmission to hold the vehicle in place.PFhopefull wrote:Does the system calculate the incline....
