Hi All,

Just a little job I did over the last weekend. I cant beleive how shoddy the original job was, the photos of the origial wiring show a fair bit. I am not a auto electrician but thought I wwould give it ago. Things like no protection where the cables sit on the hangers or anywhere the cables went over aluminium, non tinned wire going to the bildge pump (Hence a lot of green wire) and to top it off a 20mm hole just 10mm above the deck at the back off the boat. I have searched for that hole for 4 years pulled every thing apart including carpets, inspection hatches everything on the transom etc. The funny thing is the guy that did the original work thinks he did an excellent job!!!!

Should make things a bit easier to find in the event a fuse blows.:D

These photos are of the existing wiring

Hi Mark,

I have edited the original post and put the photos under some headings. When I posted I thought it looked a bit all over the place with new mixed in with the old and visa versa. Hope this makes more sense now. Just learnt a new trick on how to post as well.

Regards
