 Wiring for mentally challenged So I am trying to wire up power to my new fish finder for my Gatortail and I'm too stupid to figure it out. I am trying to wire it into my seasense brand switch panel.
The fish finder wiring is highlighted in red and the existing (working) bilge pump wiring is highlighted in blue. What the hell am I doing wrong:

Re: Wiring for mentally challenged Did you ground it? Is your fuse good?

Re: Wiring for mentally challenged Fixed it. Everything coming out of the panel is positive. Had to run ground back to battery

Re: Wiring for mentally challenged Yup. All the panel is there for is the interrupt the hot side and kill power to the device.

Re: Wiring for mentally challenged The bilge is probably grounded to the hull is why it works that way. You could have done the same but going to the battery is just as good, if not, better.
