Re: Bilge pump not working 232

Thanks guys for the replies and photos! I appreciate the offers to take a look at the boat. In 2 weeks I will be taking my boat in for winter storage to Sierra Boat. They do all the maintenance so I will just have them replace the BP. Cobaltchat has has been very helpful and I’m sure it’s not the ...

Re: Bilge pump not working 232

No need to swim to the boat.

Well, no good news. I put a 30 amp fuse in the fuse holder and it didn’t make a difference. :(
I guess I will need a new bilge pump. Is this something I can do myself? I’m guessing the bilge ...

Re: Bilge pump not working 232

So I checked some things out today. No concerns about forgetting tools, the boat is moored in front of my house. Yes I am getting 12 volts at the bilge pump circuit breaker when I ground it to the engine, thanks for that tip. The fuse holder behind the battery switch did NOT have a fuse in it. There ...

Re: Bilge pump not working 232

Thanks Titaniumboy for taking your time to help out. Yes I have 2 batteries. I will check the leads that you recommended. My bilge pump normally only works with the battery switch on and the BP toggle switch on.

Re: Bilge pump not working 232

Thanks for showing the photos. So I should have the same fuse behind my battery switch. I’m assuming that from the photo below, the arrow is pointing to the fuse holder?

Re: Bilge pump not working 232



Thanks all. The batteries are new this year. What baffles me is that the so called circuit breaker marked
“bilge pump” has no power to it with the battery on or off and has no power with the power with the bilge pump switch on. How can the the bilge pump get power if there is no power at that ...

Re: Bilge pump not working 232

Titaniumboy- I will check the batteries when I’m up there next time. My guess is if the batteries are charged enough to start the boat (over 12v), they should have enough power to run the bilge pump.

DEcosse - I will check the the bilge pump circuit breaker to see if it has power on both battery ...

Bilge pump not working 232

I have a 2006 232 that the bilge pump has stopped working on. The boat sits in the water on a buoy during the summer in Lake Tahoe. The boat can sit for weeks at a time without being used. Got in it after a few weeks and the red light on the dash next to the bilge bump switch was lit up once I ...
