can you get these online or did you go through mastercraft?

Both rear tank sensors in my 08 star were burnt when I got our boat. I asked the previous owner and he claimed to not know. I just installed new ones @ $30 or $35 each. They work fine now but the old ones looked bad.

It actually got hot? That's scary.

I have an 08 X45 and yesterday with the ballast switches OFF and tanks empty the right rear ballast sensor burned up. I unplugged the sensor to stop any further damage and continued riding. An hour or so later the left sensor started smoking and burned up as well. At this point I unplugged the left as well as the center ballast sensor to try to salvage the last sensor.

Has anyone ever experienced this issue before ? I hesitate to replace the sensor not knowing what caused the problem to begin with. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
