Hi guys, I’m having a little difficulty identifying the correct wire to pull from my Apollo 2001 GPS to send NAV data to my TruTrak X Cruz. I have attached the wiring schematic for the Apollo. I believe it’s pin 37.

I had a sl60 I tried to connect to mt Vizion 385 and was always off 15 degres. Final bought a IFly and works great
 
Pin 37 appears to be a serial transmit pin. I couldn't find much data, but this page (https://www.jpinstruments.com/FAQCategory/gps-questions/) says the II Morrow NMc-2001 transmits 9600 baud on pin 19 and 37 which agrees with your drawing.

The x-cruz manual for pin 17 suggests here (https://www.bendixking.com/content/...Vizion-380-385-Series-Installation-Manual.pdf)

Primary Serial Input. Baud rate selectable 1200, 2400, 4800or 9600 baud. Automatically decodes NMEA-0183, Garmin Aviation Format, or Apollo/UPSAT Moving-Map or GPSS format. Provides directional reference to the autopilot.

Seems like it should work.
