I was going to ask you guys where this one ends, but this is what I found out in only 2 1/2 hours of reading, digging, volt-metering...
Under the helm, DC panel, Wire 532, Red with Violet stripe (Red/Vio), 5A breaker, comes out stbd end of panel. Panel is labeled incorrectly internally. Must reference panel cover. The wire continues in a bundle to the cabin, I think.
I spliced into it (nothing else on the circuit). I cut my blue wire leading into my Clarion Remote at the helm. I spliced these two together (blue to remote and 532). Now, in order to see what's on the stereo (remote back lighting), I turn on the ACCY 1 switch on the stbd side of the dash, just below the stereo on/off switch instead of turning on the Nav lights. MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Next comes the cabin lighting. I found the wiring to the two salon lights over the bulkhead above the mid-cabin berth (the ones that can't be turned off individually unless you have a large tv there). They, like other lighting wires, are blue and black. I'm going to add a switch there. For anyone still reading, where do I get a standard ('05 340) light switch?
