Bilge/Speedo/Exhaust purge

[Johnny Dimez]

My Bilge pump, exhaust purge, and speedometer stopped workin on my last trip. I checked the fuse panel, they’re all good.

The switch lights come on but nothing happens.

Any ideas?

Any ideas?

Is there a fuse between the battery and bilge pump?

Usually a fuse between bilge and batteries. Mine was blown when I bought it. Agee with above

Thank you guys for the suggestion. I checked and the fuse is good. Blower is not operating either. They both stopped working at the same time which is why I figured it was a fuse.

I’ll look around some more for another fuse.

I’ll also check power to the pump and blower once I’m off work.

If anyone has more suggestions for me to check is appreciate it.

Could run a jumper to pos on blower if you can reach, also check all fuses under the dash. Actually pull them and look at them closely.

The fact that they all stopped is suspicious. Check all wiring under dash and engine

Turned out a fuse was blown after all. Visual check was good but physic check was bad. Blower still isn't working and speedo looks like it's analog. I'll keep digging. Thank you for all the suggestions this far.

Fuse turned out bad when checked with a multimeter

Wires checked good

So is the blower still not working it could just be a bad blower check to see if you have power going to it when the switch is on

Correction, my buddy used a 30A fuse to test the bilge. It worked so now we need to chase the wires, starting with disconnecting the pump.

Geesh, boats are more maintenance than I imagined.

I’ve already dropped $1k on my trailer this season! Hope that’s the end of it.

It's an expensive hobby. Don't get scared.marine parts are 3 4 times the money than auto
