Check fuses and connections it may have the old glass type My friends Lowes has the old type fuse and he has to just roll them in the holder to get them to make up. If youve lost power to everything it's something simple. Check the connection at the battery first.

I can't seem to locate the fuse box...

Fuses may be located up under the console. You may have to literally lay on your back and stick your head underneath.

I've got a '91 180FS, and I've had to replace a couple of the switches because the internals were glazzed. My switch panel has reset buttons right under the switches, and I have had to replace a couple of them, also. None of the electronics in my boat will work on less than 11 volts, and I discovered that when I had a battery go bad.



I just had to relace the livewell pump last year. The livewell pump, and the bilge pump, in my boat, are located under a plate in the floor of the battery compartment. I highly recommend pulling the cover plate and cleaning the bilge area, and inspecting the bilge pump strainer. The livewell drain control is in this location, and a little super lube on the cable wouldn't hurt. The aerator pump is behind a carpeted plate, inside the storage compartment, under the seats. Feel free to ask any questions, Thanks, Don
