where is the fuse for the shower water pump?

[Steve Boat]

I just got the boat and the pump worked dry, as soon as we added water a fuse blew and the switch light does not light.

Anyone know where this is?

Welcome
Boat info would help us help you.
Fuse blocks are under helm on most boats

Don,

That fixed the pump issue, but none of the lights in side work do you know when the power is from?

Thnks Steve

You really need to provide more information regarding your boat. Power comes from the batteries.

If the pump fuse was under the helm, then more than likely all of the 12v fuses are in the fuse block(s) under the helm. They are rarely marked, so the easiest technique is to do the following:

1) Turn the Battery Switches ON
2) Turn on ALL 12v devices (Lights, pumps, etc)
3) Now start pulling one fuse at a time and have an assistant note what went out when that particular fuse was pulled.

There are typically some fuse slots that are used as fuse holders. IF there is no wire associated with that slot (either a ring terminal or a spade terminal) then that is a spare fuse.

Replace any fuse that isn't a spare and that didn't shut anything off, it is more than likely attached to something that isn't working.

ATC fuses build up corrosion. Sometimes you simply need to unseat and reseat the fuse a couple of times to scrape off the corrosion. Sometimes you need to replace the fuse, even if it isn't blown. Sometimes if you're plagued with problems, it might be time to replace the fuse block. The contacts can corrode over time.

Thanks this helped I still can't get the lights to work next week I will pull the switch panel and look at wire colors se if they go to under dash or the bilge

Just a heads up, no pun, toilet fuse is behind Battery switches crammed in. Need to unscrew Battery switch panel under sink in my 3300. If you can't find a fuse check it out. What a stupid place to put fuses.

[denemante]

Uncleted - curious what you mean about the toilet fuse. I too have a 3300. I have not yet pulled the wall panel off next to the toilet to see what's in there. You said toilet fuse is behind battery switches? My main battery switches are topside in cabinet under wetbar sink. Are you saying you have to remove the main batter switches, and there's a fuse panel back there for the toilet - and maybe other things?

[Uncleted]

Yes, there are several fuses behind that panel

[Uncleted]

Not a fuse panel, just in line fuses. Factory placed and very tight for room. Really stupid place to put fuses. I pulled toilet panels, dash panels and all. Finally seen, I think on this sight , that there was factory placed fuses there

[Uncleted]

Now can't find fuse for dash gauges line with fuel, temp, oil. No lights work, yet light for tachs and switches work, accept for dash lights switch

[Uncleted]

I decided, I am going to cut an access panel under the rear seat in the wall under the sink and behind the battery switch for access. Can't believe several fuses jammed behind Battery switch that you can't even get to without taking compartment and or battery switches apart.
