Battery switch fuses?
- Thread starter glacierbaze
- Start date
Most likely, things like stereo memory and the float switch for a bilge pump, or two (or the auto sensing lead for all-in-one pumps). Those things are always wired direct to power and have fuses within a short distance of where they pickup power. Sometimes these things are connected direct to a battery, instead.
Some boat manufacturer's label the fuse holder - I can't tell if those are/are not labelled, or if I just can't see it in the picture. I think I see at least one brown wire, though... which would indicate a bilge pump as that's a standardized coloring. But you can probably compare the wire colors to what's listed in your manual.
Want an even easier way to figure it out? Pull the fuse... what no longer works?

Two are Floats: Brown/ white and Brown/ Red
Third is the memory wire Pink/ Red
If you ever take that battery switch off, take a pic and share. I have a 2000 228 and trying to figure out what 1 cable is. I am curious if our boats are wired the same.
Also, pop out those fuses and see if they are good.

See attached...
Save the picto your phone if you don’t have the manual in the boat
