Bass Cat Boats:

Then the wires are likely pulled off on an install or something.

Would this likely be at the bow or the dash??  I had my trolling motor serviced a couple of months ago, could something have happened then?

Bass Cat Boats:

The bow switch should be inside the recess well, on the left side and it should turn on the trim switches.

I know it should but it doesn’t.

Bass Cat Boats:

The tank is manual, the gauge goes to default and the switch changes it.

Isn’t that special, something else to do every time I start the engine.

Here’s another one, why do the trim buttons at the bow only work when the lights are turned on at the dash??

I had to remove the fitting and reseal it.
