    Low voltage problem?

    No manufacture does this from the factory, only why this would be setup to work this way is from some shade tree mechanic

    Low voltage problem?

    Agree with Gsent, your Bats are the initial issue. A AGM at 12.4V is 75% and going down to 11V is about dead While the boat gauge may have an issue, the Alt should output 14 to 14.5V at the Bat, same as the Bat charger

    Need to test a find out what the voltage level is at the drives. This is measured using a digital voltmeter and a Merc test probe. There are other manufactures of the probes but would need to look. The probe is basically a platinum coated wire wrapped around a short plastic stick with a led...

    Bilge Question(s)!

    Don't know for sure which question is being asked, so I'll try all sides Does the forward bilge have a bilge pump? If it does then maybe that pump is there to pump the condensate out If there is no bilge then the line was cut, unless there is a drain leading to amidships bilge If the forward...
