Well unfortunalty I have benn there done that already too. i was getting a faulty reading (very high). there is a good tech paper on it on the raymarine site, just do a search. Its a simple ohm value per tempreture.
There are 2 fixes, replace the trandsducerr/thermistor, or you can add a second smaller thermister into the hull and splice into the harness. I opted to replace the existing transducer. The biggest issue for 318 owners, is the placement of it in relation to the starboard engine. I had mine done when the engine was out for my generator nightmare, so it was an easy swap. NOt the case with the engine in.
