Hi
Long shot but does anyone have a picture or the wiring diagram of the downstairs cabin please?
In the middle of installing the new headliner and the wall liner and found a long wire connected to the fuse coming through the back of the kitchen towards the seats and it has 12V in it. We don't know what it's for as it's cut at the end..‍♀️
 
Good luck. My 91 250 been thru so many owners that under dash is a rats nest of untraceable wires. My horn don’t work cause somewhere behind the new cabin headliner the wire is broken.
Hazards of buying used boats.
Even with a diagram there is no way to know if it’s accurate to a boat that been thru many owners.

It's not just the owners that is our issue...I think it's the age combined with being built in US and is currently in UK.
My husband is aircraft electrician/avionics engineer so he isn't too bad with those skills, but even that didn't stop him being zapped a bit installing the UK plugs lol. He's fine BTW. Just not sure what that wire is for. Maybe heaters they had under the seats? Maybe microwave (he doesn't think it's that) and the lights were traced up on the ceiling, which he also rewired. Fridge is plugged in and working... So we are at a loss.
 
The manual that Mitch linked for you (and it seems you have this, already) is the extent of what is available. There is no wiring diagram available. In later years, Sea Ray started providing full-on wiring diagrams that are actually quite extensive. But not for boats "back in the day".

Good 'ol fashioned investigative skills is what is needed here :) For example...

-- What fuse is "connected to the fuse"?
-- Does anything not work in vicinity, or further upstream of where the wire might have terminated?

If everything is fine without that wire being connected, remove it and/or just pull the fuse.
