I have a tigershark with a 500 gph bilge pump, it runs contineously; does anyone know why or how to solve the problem? Needless to say it has put a crunch on the battery...............thanks!

Re: Bilge Pump

Sounds liek you got a short from the switch ( is it a manual or automatic? if automatic the float may be stuck so the pump stays on. if its manual the wires going to the switch are grounding somewhere so the pump stays on
Disconnect your battery and look for a ground on the wires going to the switch if auto then check the float
