Bert 25 Location of Main Fuse Block Fuses & No Power to instruments and ignition

[chrisCA]

Hi

I have a problem with my Bertram 25 1972 twin 165's

I lost all power to instrument panel and fuse blocks. I've been troubleshooting and found a wiring diagram.

Does anyone know if the location of these fuses that are on the AMM+

Would it be at the back of the wiring harness or somewhere upfront. I can't seem to be able to find it.

Can you think of any other fuses that would cause a complete no power to front of boat? I have 12v at the starter solenoid

As you face the engine(s) you will see a large red button on the left side marked
CIRCUIT BREAKER, PUSH TO RESET. Try it.

There should be a fuse/bus bar behind the helm console.
Access to that is thru the back of the bulkhead in the cabin.
Good luck.

Thank You guys.

I feel like such an idiot The breaker was right in front of me. Cooked up in dirt and grease.
I just had my morning coffee went down to the boat and just stared at the motors and haha there the breaker struck me in the face

The are mounted backwards so the reset is facing back of the motors. Anyhow,

I reset it and it comes on for a few seconds, my sump pump comes on and than it trips. I'll work on it tonight. I suspect the sump pumps as the ignition was off when it tripped.

Any other short finding tips would be appreciated.

Much happier skipper Chris...

Pump could be bad. I would discuss the float switch, wire the pump direct and see if it blows. If it does the pump is bad. If it doesn't get a new float switch.

Of course you could also have a bare spot on a wire touching and shorting out.
