I have a 290DA 07 that the previous owner have the under water lights wired with the bilge lights, I hate that every time I turn them on I know the bilge lights are on for no reason, the question is how to wire the under water light to one of the accessory switch on the helm switch panel, has anyone has any idea? Thanks for the help in advance.
 
There should be an accessory wire hidden in the wiring harness just off from the EIM on the bulkhead. Possibly marked ACC2.
 
Thanks! I will look today, my EIM is right there below the steering wheel, I will look to see if I see the extra wires or connector, also if I remember correctly there is an accessory 1 and acc 2 switch, thanks!
 
If you have the owners manual it will tell you which wire is powered for you Acc switch either helm or aft EIM. 526-14 is my aft acc cable, look for a 6 inch unterminated wire coming out of the side of you EIM.
 
Thanks for the help! I found the one wire on the fwd EIM (acc1) so that helps me a lot, I did try to find the one on the the aft EIM but i didn't find the wire for acc2 , thanks again for the help!!
