Alumacraft 1860. Bought used. Here is what I discovered.
BOTH sockets for nav lights were corroded. Replaced both. (still dont work) Brker not tripped.
All instrument gauge lights dont work. Brker not tripped.
Are all these lights connected ? I got NO electrical voltage readings on the nav light wiring.
All instrument gauge bulbs are good. I do get 12 Volts on each Gauge ""EXCEPT""
The 12 volt readings only come off the hot leg off the blue wire & the other end to the ignition lug on the back of each gauge. If that makes any sense.
To proceed, I think I need to know WHAT makes the gauge lights come on.I have turned on accessory switch- no lights
Ignition key to on- still no lights. I didn't check to see if they come on WHILE the motor is actually running..
and if that all isnt confusing enough, There is the nav lights issue.
Can I solve these issues SEPARATE or are. they connected somehow.
Thank you for any input.
