Maddening. The manual says fuses are accessed through a 4 " plate in the head. I cannot find this panel... which makes me feel like an idiot since the head is not exactly a palace. Any suggestions as to alternate locations for the fuse panel? Trying to test live well fuse. Thanks folks.
 
Of course there is a circuit breaker on the switch panel itself for the live well, but there is another fuse panel under the electronics pop up, actually behind the AC/DC panel over the aft cabin access passageway. (6 screws) I currently have mine open, blew a fuse on the trim tabs, but don't remember if there is a live well fuse. It is easy to check power at the live well pump with a meter. You have to look way up high above the main DC bus bar for the accessory fuse panel. Mine has the plastic cover over it, BlueSea brand if I remember correctly. I can go out and check mine on Sunday if you still need to know, since I have it open. Turns out my trim tab problem was the ES2000 rocker switch. Bennett sent me a replacement under warranty. Good Luck
 
Thank you for the reply. Knowing if there is a fuse in that panel for the live well would be very useful - if you have the chance to chec k that would be great.
 
My boat is a 2007 and may differ from yours. The auxiliary fuse panel (shown on page 8-3) does not have a live well fuse and is the one I was talking about. You can see it by lifting the electronics box cover as far up as it will go and looking down on the port side thru a hole below the electronics. It has a spot for 12 fuses, a plastic cover and contains the trim tab fuse and other DC outlet automotive type fuses. As I read the circuit diagrams, the fuse for the live well is a 6 amp located on the switch panel itself. You should note that the live well light is in parallel with the pump. If you have a light in the well and it works with the switch turned on, the pump should be getting power down stream from the fuse, unless there is a wiring problem. Good Luck!
