Compartment Lights

We offered either system connected to the boat system over the years. Most common is the one with the alarm in it. There were a few years with lights only, however we also developed an alarm option for those.

This is a second one and we are going to verify with the manufacturer that a change has Not occurred in software were unaware of.

I was just wondering this as well. Just got back from St Clair and my rod locker got quite a bit of water in in from the waves crashing over the side. I have the lid open with a fan on it and the light flickers constantly. I thought it may turn off after 30 minutes or so but thats not the case.

Any word or recommendation on this?

They were assembling information on the changes. It seems the flashing lights are normal.

You should try and tighten the bolts with lock washers that hold your wiring to the hinge. Also inspect the lug nuts and wiring to be sure you have good connection (wiring should not be loose in the lug nuts). This should be a good enough fix to eliminate those problems. It just might be as simple as that!Otherwise you could do as BCB suggests and hardwire your ground to bypass the hinges altogether. Good luck with it.Everyone should believe in something.
