Hello Gents,
Couldn't get the general question section to let me post....I finally got up to get a serious look at the boat I bought a few weeks ago and can't get anything 12 V to come on.
No blower, no radio, no voltage going to the battery charger and no bilge pumps, both new batterys dead... . On the main panel is shows the 110 v coming in but when I turn on the converter switch nothing comes on and meter shows zero. I'm plugged into No. 1 main and have a good connection although one yellow light is steady and the other just flickers...Engines not too rusty. Although I noticed my rudder post support brackets are wasted away. I see all the breaker boxes on the front bulkhead in the engine compartment and don't see anything tripped but don't see anything designated charger. I opened the side door to the battery charger and put a volt meter on some on the connections and didn't show any 110 v getting in there although I wasn't sure if that was the input or output side. Any help would be greatly appreciated on where to start looking for a bad breaker. Tits up at Smith Mountain Lake...Bruce 757-515-6482
