having a problem with the electrical system and need some help/advice
running a volvo engine outdrive 5.8fi 95 240 HORIZON
fully charged battery... the rear drive unit has up/down power from the trim button to lift the prop out of the water but i have no power to the main switch board front panel.
nothing comes on no bilge no lights no radio nothing, i checked the emergency cut off switch and it's intact and has the clip on it, and the forward/reverse is in neutral.
Is there a main fuse? or something that would interrupt the flow of current to the main panel switches?
one other thing, we were gone for 12 days to europe and when we came back there was a good about of water in the bilge I had to use the old bilge pump directly to the battery to empty the bilge could this have shorted the main power feed to the front panel...if so how to fix?
first time ive had any problem like this.
thanks for any assistance
