Im finally getting around to figuring out what is wrong with my aerator. i disconnected it (in the bilge area) a few years ago because it kept running. I can turn the switch off, man, 3 or 5 minutes and it wont stop running. I swapped pumps it didnt help so it must be something in the wiring or control panel. Any fix? how much is a panel? what can i check? can i swap the leads going to the recirculating pump so i can have aeration? Good Point Phil, my boat is a 2003 Cougar. it has the push button panel, nav lights, bilge, aerator, rec., fuel, hornLast edited by dmov on September 7th, 2009, 3:21 am, edited 3 times in total.
