How about the 80 amp breaker off the perko switch?

[Guest]

Did you buzz the 90 amp thermal link on the main run to the batteries or isolator. It is a flat black device typically screwed to floor. Disconnect Hot end and ohm it out.

Before you disconnect check voltage across it and should be 0. check voltage on side towards battery or perko and should have 13.6vdc measured from it to ground on engine block.

Disconnect Hot end and ohm it out. Should be about 0 ohms.

I have had my run in with that big red circuit breaker reset button. I replaced my alternator and the one I took off was an automotive not marine. So when i got the new one I hooked everything up and still had one stud left that didn't have any symbols or anything to tell what it was. I also had one leftover purple wire, and the schematics said that the purple wire went to the alternator so I hooked it up. Boat ran fine till I got back to the dock and it wouldn't turn off. Pulled the keys out and the engine was still chugging. Since the purple wire was the only one I had questioned I pulled it back off and the boat die. Went to try and start it again and had nothing. Found that breaker and reset it but it just kept tripping. Apparently that purple wire was a ground and I hooked it up to a Pos. on the alt. and melted every wire in my wireharness and looms to ground. Spent the next 4 hours rewiring the entire harness and loom. Fun day that was.

installing a 3rd amp = $500

I have a friend that starts projects and then calls me for help. I usually tell him if he doesn't call me before starting on it, he'll need to take it to the dealer.

That doesn't sound like a friend at all. He treats you like his personal keffer.
