Default Airconditioning Pump

How do you change fuses? My a/c freshwater pump mysteriously stopped working.

daren... what boat do you have? maybe start a new thread...

my 2 accesory fuse blocks on my 3300 are under the helm and reachable by the bottom access panel when checking fuse or by removing the helm main control board when doing repairs for more room.

Moved to its own thread.

The Airconditioning Pump is 120VAC. The Fuse panel is 12VDC. The fuses in the 12V fuse bus (typically under the dash) will not apply. AC will commonly have a dedicated shorepower connection, a dedicated 30A Main Breaker and a dedicated 15a circuit breaker.

The shorepower circuit should have a Volt Meter and light indicating it has voltage. I'd make sure I'm showing full voltage at the meter. A hand-held volt meter will help troubleshooting the breakers themselves.

More than likely this is a breaker issue. Otherwise its the pump itself.

Check the reset button on your ac unit.

a/c compressor runs and pushes out room temp air - not cooling or heating. Would pump and a/c be on same circuit? My pump is a 115v 500 gph freshwater pump.

Thanks!

When the AC runs it should have an output that goes to the pump, (or pump relay if more than one AC).

Check that output for voltage, (115VAC).

Did you check the reset button on top of the a/c unit ? Mine did the same thing would run put out room temp. and pump would not run it was the reset button.
