1988 Four winns vista 245 Shower sub pump

[Angelcleaner]

I just got a Vista 245 and the shower water comes out in the cabin floor. Dose anyone know where the sub pump for the shower is. I can't find any access panels. I turn on the pump power and it shows a draw on the battery but noting happens.

Greetings,

sometimes the shower sump is tucked away in the bilge (engine bay) . . .

It should look something like this

I didn't see anything like that. I took up the carpet no access under it. Nothing in the engine bay.

If you Google "Four Winns Vista 245 sump" there are a few owners manuals that come up and show various locations for the sump pump.

Take a look at those and it may give you some ideas of places you have not looked yet.

I found it. It is in front of the stern bed. There is a panel that looks like it can't come apart. The screws are deep in the carpet that covers it. When you remove the panel you have access to the floor and there is a well there that the pump sets in. Every web site I got doesn't have a manel for my boat. Everything but the 245 Vista. Thanks for the help.

I could be wrong, but tat looks like a bilge pump to me. I think the shower pump is different. You don't want it pumped out into open water, you need it to go to a holding tank?
