    Blown fuse on Deep cycle battery

    I have an issue where my pumps, lights, accessories will not come on. I charged the battery and still did not work. I changed the battery, charged it and still is not working. I checked the 10am fuse and noticed it was burned. I changed the fuse out and it blew immediately. Of course, I had to try it again with the same outcome.

    They worked fine back in October...

    Any suggestions?

    If a fuse blows imediatly without anything ever being turned on, then there is a dead short between the fuse and the switch(s). Now, I dont see how that single 10A fuse is powering more then one thing, so if other devices are also not working, then there may be other issue yet to be found. Most of the time, each device will have its own fuse, i.e. ballast pumps = their own fuse, tower lights = own fuse, courtesy lights = own fuse, ACC socket = own fuse.

      This is over my limited electrical knowledge.

        There is a circuit breaker hidden above the batteries if you have the factory dual batteries. It's black and hard to see if it's popped, my dealer showed me where it is and how to check it. I'll post pics if you need them.

          That breaker was not popped. That is one of the first thing the tech asked me to look for. The boat is at the dealer to solve this problem.

            There is? Where? I dug around in there a bit during winterization last year and never saw one. I have dual main breakers on the panel under the driver's console, but nothing that I know of with the batteries.

              The positive lead on my house battery goes right to it on mine.

                Mine was mounted on the floor between the 2 batteries.

                  OK, I'll check again when it comes out of storage. Getting closer... can't wait!
