Bought a used 19' deckboat last year, and noticed I don't need to turn the Access switch on to use the radio or depth finder. Always concerning as if I leave on, could drain the battery. Also, I was early morning fishing today and noticed there is a constant light on my radio also light around the "power" button. Obviously this pulls on the battery (even though a tiny amount).
What is best practice when running power to radio and depth finder?
Another issue related, is I put a new battery in a few days ago, and when I have the depth finder on and then turn the engine on, it turns off the depth finder sometimes. Any help with these electrical issues would be very helpful!
