Blown Fuse

Featured Replies

I have a 07 Skeeter SL 190. I am having problems with a blown fuse. I believe the problem is related to the livewell pump. How do I find where the short is? Do I have to pull wiring all out? Any advice?

Thx,

A. Scott

Before you mess with the wiring, disassemble the pump to assure it's not jammed with debris. A stalled pump will blow a fuse too. You could have a bad pump motor with the same symptom.

Eliminate the simple things before tackling the more difficult things.

I'm guessing you have a fuse block or circuit breaker. If you believe it's from the livewell pump, disconnect the wires at the pump and energize the circuit. If the fuse no longer blows or the circuit doesn't trip then that was your problem. If it continues to trip it's not the pump and could be the wiring or another accessory. It's the process of elimination. Disconnect one accessory at a time and try each circuit.
