Not looking at the reactor 40 all the emails to Garmin were for the TR one Gold. All I have been getting is one sentence responses not a lot of help from Garman.So you’re saying all you need is the TR -1 gold and the cylinder mounting bracket? And they’re also saying this may or may not void warranty’s.

According to Garmin my motor is not listed only 15 horse EFI and 2018 Mines a 2015 carbureted so mine would be a custom install and it might or might not be guaranteed.If I could find someone that could do it I would pay them to do it I don’t have the necessary talent to do a custom install on an auto pilot Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Looks like the motor ez steer and ITroll will be for sale cheap in spring . Sick of trying to deal with all the trouble. And it’s a great motor Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Asked Garmin if this is possible to just use the autopilot function without throttle .Their respond was “we have not tested this unit in that way if you do, it will void the warranty “ Three emails to them on if I could use the Reactor , no help at all, Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Fantastic that’ll work Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Finally got a hold of Garman my motors is a 2015 but it’s carbureted throttle won’t work on a carbureted four stroke has to be EFI so if I can use my Itroll for throttle and the reactor for steering that might work. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

CK 3080. I have an autopilot on my 3.0 Islander IO linked to my 15hp Merc with EZ steer nothing but problems.Screwed with that for 3 years now. 65 years old now don’t want any problems just want to fish. Going to end up fishing myself friends my age want to sit home. That’s why I’m looking for a kicker autopilot so any help appreciated.Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

I’ll try calling, the Garmin Reactor 40 for small kicker looks good. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Trying to get information on an autopilot that will work on my kicker motor. I have sent several emails to Garmin and Lowrance customer service asking for information and help. No answer. Is it just me or wouldn’t you think they would want a $3000 sale . Don’t know how else to get help from these people. Any ideas? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

I decided to do the same. I replaced the floor on my last boat don’t want to do that again. Inside storage now both boats. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

No I have generation one HDS and the other one is Older than that both Lowrance units . I would either need the display or buy a compatible sonar. Plus I will sell my I troll since I wouldn’t need that.

The kicker is a 2015 I’m thinking Garmin Reactor 40 for the kicker. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

The two motors are connected with an EZ steer rod but the main motor is power assist so in order to steer the kicker motor I have to keep the main motor running

The main motor is power assist so in order to Steer the kicker motor I have to have the main motor running to

I appreciate all the help I have an auto pilot on the main motor I’m looking for a good auto pilot strictly for the 15 horse Merc kicker so I can run the little motor with an auto pilot without the big motor running.

I hope your listening Cuomo Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

You guys seem to know what’s going on. What autopilot would be the best to run my 15 hp merc 4 stroke. I have 2 older Lowrance HDS gen 1 units.I just want to run the kicker motor, upgrade the sonar later. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
