Hi All, third year owning our 22’ Cruiser on the south shore of Lake Superior. Great boat for Gitchee Gumee! Recently my control panel, all the rocker switches from horn to bile pump decided to quit working. I checked the two small fuses behind the panel and both were good. Rumors of some master fuse somewhere but it’s eluding me. Any clues?

There us usually a 30 to 40 amp circuit breaker on the wire from the battery switch [(1,2, All, Off) or similar switch and a positive bus near by,] going to the the main console. They may have tripped.

There also may be corrosion on both positive and negative leads. This is a good time to take the wires off terminals, clean and put back on after cleaning. I usually spray with a corrosion blocking compound after this to decrease any corrosion. Often a negative lead problem will be missed.
