Just bought 2003 Key West 196 BR
In console there seems to be another set of Battery leads
It seems to be that way from Factory
Does anyone also have these and are they wired to Bow trolling motor socket
Not on factory wiring diagram
Would like to add two batteries in console for new 24 Volt trolling motor
Thanks
John

If it's not on the factory wiring diagram, it's probably not factory. Time to start tracing wires and see where they go to. Tag each wire when you find both ends, then make yourself a wiring diagram so you know what you have.

As Don says.

Also BEFORE you start looking or moving those DIY stuff. REMOVE ALL wires from the battery FIRST. Who knows how ready the wiring out of sight is ready to short big time & melt some wires together. Pull the Battery wires.

Edit With any real luck. They did your wiring for you. Carefully check all the lugs on the ends.
