    Yessir you did. Thanks. I know what you are going through, made that change earlier this year and still trying to get this Macbook figured out. Was out of my budget unfortunately but what an amazing looking boat!

    Beautiful boat. Had a great conversation with Jerry today. Really nice man and Id not hesitate to do business with him. I have a few irons in the fire right now and this boat is one of them. Very nice rig indeed. Last edited by cdaymude on February 26th, 2013, 3:00 pm, edited 1 time in total.

Hope this is or will be of some help to folks as we work through whats going on.

    **Update – Monday late AMJust got of the phone with BCB and the consensus is a bad A-10 touchpad. Steven in support let me know that I have one on the way later this week when BCB gets theirs in and Ill send mine back for them to RTV along with an LED on the trailer thats out. Pretty straight forward stuff and very much appreciate the help from BCB. Hope this helps others as they troubleshoot their own issues.

    Update ** Monday AM and I’m back to square one.

    Here’s what we know and what BCB is working to help me understand as they do the same:

    Horn – Not working

    Bilge Pump – Not working

    Compartment Lights – Not working

    Cranking battery is good – 12.7 VDC on the multimeter directly from the battery terminals

    Bilge pump connections & pump seat are solid – double checked with torx head screw driver to be sure nothing was “wiggling” and it’s all solid

    Harness in back of A-10 Touchpad is solid

    Have not run water in to bilge again and am waiting to hear back from BCB on what might be the issue while everything is dry.

    Seems we have a connection issue or a bad ground possibly inside of the A-10 touchpad but we’re still diagnosing that now. Hope this is or will be of some help to folks as we work through what’s going on. Searching for a needle in a haystack right now but we’ll get it figured out.

    **Update – Monday July 1. Got the new A-10 touchpad (thanks BCB) and have it installed. Im sad to report that there was no change to the situation. Will reach out to BCB in the AM for more ideas/help. Will keep this thread updated with findings.

    I did check them by “feel” and they felt very solid. Even gave the screw heads a tension test to be sure none backed out due to vibration, etc and everything feels rock solid. Am noticing a slight bit of chalkiness on a few terminals so am going to disconnect each, clean, and reconnect.This may be the key as upon doing this again this evening was able to get the compartment light to “flicker” which points to a ground likely unless the other 2 systems (bilge & horn) are on the same positive circuit. **Update** Found 2 issues with the terminal block. While all connections felt solid upon loosening each (after disconnecting the positive lead on the cranking battery) I found that one terminal had significant corrosion on it and so I cleaned it with fine file to get a good “shiny metal to metal” connection upon reconnecting it. Second thing was that the jumper pointed out by JEH was not seated within the crimp real good and had a little “wiggle” in it which was only noticeable when the terminal screw was loosened. Went ahead and cleaned each terminal post, replaced the terminal block “loops” on both ends of the jumper and also the corroded ground terminal post I found and reconnected everything and IT WORKS!Great call JEH, that was the needle in the haystack I was hunting for!! Thanks a TON!Thanks to BCB Admin here who contacted me and although closed for the Holiday week was willing to see if there might be someone who could contact me from the plant to give me some guidance which is phenomenal customer service; particularly for a second owner (me). Many thanks for the contact BCB and a special thanks to JEH for your help. Hoping that this thread helps someone else who searches on the title topic in the event that they have an issue like this.
