RangerGuy Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 So I finnally had time to hook my charger up to my starting battery and run power to my FF. When I opened my bilge I found this (check out what I found floating in my bilge) It appears there was a constant power running from my panel that doesn't shut off with the master power. The positive lead was sitting in the bilge water ARGH! I've rinsed the bilge with a hose the the best I can. Hopeing this doesn't damage my hull. The paint doesn't seem to be affected yet. You think they would put water proof ends on power wires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 It's not going to hurt a thing. Did you fix the wiring issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerGuy Posted August 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Yeh I cut the ends and wrapped them tight.... I was shocked to see this live connection was just left open to short against something.. I was freak'n because I thought maybe some of the bolts etc I used to install the charger etc were not stainless steel and were causing a reaction with the aluminum hull.. so I pulled the middle floor hatch out just to make sure THEN I found the positive wire sitting in water HAHA!
