i got a 2004 cougar with problems. last week i went to the lake fishing and got to where i wanted to fish, dropped the trolling motor and turned on the graph, no power to graph. come home pulled graph off and checked. graph works fine. checked wiring to graph and found no power. i cant find a fuse block nor can i locate where the wiring for the graph ties into its power supply. can someone help me out, i have search under the dash and replaced all wire connections with solder connections and heat shrink. still no power to graph.thanks guysallan

It could be loose at the master switch, or there could be a ground loose. The trace of the wire is what is the process and they are color coded within reason. If you need more info, dont hesitate to buzz BCB. BCB

Not sure…but most i have seen are tied into the panel at the Bow, remove that panel where the ACC switches and trim buttons are and it should be wired into those sources, which are controlled by the master switch below the throttle.

Hey guys, thanks for all the help. I checked the wiring in the bow of the boat and found the main positive wire was broken at the butt splice. To prevent future problems I removed all the spices and soldered the wires together and sealed the connections with heat shrink tubing. I also added an inline fuse before closing back up.Thanks again to BCB and everyone who replied.Allan
