I have a 2002 21se. One of my actuators no longer functions. Since both actuators are the same age I figure I might as replace both rather then just the bad one. I opened the bilge cover expecting to find the wires for the port and starboard actuators running toward the center of the boat then up the wire chase to the console and then to the control switch. I could not find the actuators wires in the bilge area. I traced them from the control switch down through the bottom of the console. From there I have no idea where they go unless they split under the console and run down each side of the boat. How much of a job is it to replace the actuators and run the wiring? Is this a DIY kind of job or should I be looking for a qualified installer. If I hire it done any ball park as to what it might cost (labor). The two Lenco 101 Standard Actuators alone will run around $320.
