Joe, wouldn't a short drain the battery or blow the fuse?
Magnum
Yeah if she has breakers or fuses. And I think haggy lives aboard so
most likely she uses a contavolt to keep the batteries charged and
carry the house load.

Break out a meter. Sounds like a short. If so re-wire.

So the aft-most two dome lights (12 volt) on a 4 light circuit have been
giving me the blues for a month or so. Intermittant most of the time
but
now dead, sort of... Bill replaced the switch on one and they both
worked
until he left town...After another day of meters and torn up galley
seems
he's getting 13 volts through the wires but it won't light the
bulb...He's
thinking there is some sort of resistance somewhere. Any ideas?
Experience? Jokes?? The Taiwanese in their infinite wisdumb epoxied
the
wires into the deck beams and cabin sides!!!
