On my 2016 375 Freedom, when the motors and ignition are off, the center motor start/stop button stays dimly illuminated. Battery switches are on. Anyone know why this green light is staying illuminated? Thanks for your help.

I would guess that this issue is related to your earlier post about the voltage at the 120v panel reading 0.1 v
 
An external issue with shore power or stray current could result on small voltages on the ground bus. I would not expect that to be enough to light that LED but I would recommend checking out the isolator and check for stray electrical or galvanic issues.
I suggested removing the shore power cable to see if there is any change to the small AC voltage reading. If not, I would move the boat away form the dock and see if that low voltage still displays.

My concern other than a defective AC panel is that there may be an stray electrical issue and that can lead to damaging electrolysis.
