Can anyone tell me where the Front Bilge pump in a 26zx get its power from?
My front bilge pump has never worked and I thought the unit was bad, when I checked for voltage its reading zero. It has a float on it so I think it should get continuos power but I tried it with the bilge switch on as well and I hear the back one come on but the front will not.

If someone can just confirm that the front bilge pump should come on when I hit the bilge switch that would be great. The live wire does have a number
sleeve on it so now I started to pull the dash apart to see if I can find the other end on either the post block or the back of the switch.

Thanks Jim

Onemore thing, I didn't try my battery swith in position two so I will tonight but I think the pump should get power even when the battery switch is off
I believe.

Thanks Jim

I don't know about the source as I am a long way away from the boat. I do know that it should be wired direct.
