    12 volt DC Question

    seasick you are correct. By using the light to check each part of the circuit you will be providing the current demand on the circuit you desire. Once you locate the marginal circuit the light will cease to burn.

    Livewell Pump

    Thanks for the reply. I wasn't sure if the pump had a check system within itself. Most of the livewells I've had in the past were a spraybar type and it was always above the water level in the well. Thanks again

    Livewell Pump

    My livewell is draining back through my pump. I have to continue to refill. Is this a design flaw or has my pump failed? Any help would be great. Thanks
