    No power to my radio, cabin lights or refridgerator

    My mistake. I got better connection on the wires now. Reads .8 volts

    And I checked volts at the 12 volts wires going to fridge and it's totally erratic. Jumping all over front 50 to 130

    So we've determined the isolator is bad. I'm not sure if that will solve my original problem but my new question is until I get a new isolator is there a way to bypass it? In getting approximately 16 volts out of new alternator which goes into faulty isolator and not much current goes out to the...

    When I pulled out the fridge I noticed no water entered this area. It was all dry. I removed the little panel with the DC lines going in but there wasn't anything to see. Maybe could be a fuse but I couldn't remove it. I forgot to unplug shore power as you suggested when I was checking the 110...

    I should also mention the alternator is fried (being underwater) so I didn't know if perhaps that created the drain on the battery. Im replacing the alternator today.

    I'll have to check the voltage. Batteries are brand new. Installed 10 days ago. What would cause battery to discharge and be cooked? I did not check water level. And the other battery has 12 volts in it. About the inverter I was only getting 1 amp going out unless I wasn't testing it properly.

    I removed the fridge and it's plugged into a 110 outlet that has power at the outlet. I also have 1 battery that's got 6 volts in it. I'm putting it on a slow cooker now to charge it because the onboard charger is not charing it

    The charger is before the switch. Power leaves charger goes jnto a rectifier (I believe) then to the switch then batteries. There's also a lead from the alternator to the rectifier. Boating in general is new to me. Only owned this boat for 2 years. Wiring does not appear to have been modified. I...

    It is a screw in. Only 1/4 turn

    I apologize. I wasn't trying to argue. I respect your opinions. I'm just trying to give you my observations. So my radio does not retain any settings. I don't believe it's hard wired.

    Yes there's a charger/ inverter in engine bay. I'm 99% sure I would have radio and lights on shore power. Leaving the battery switch in off position.

    Guess I can only upload 1 pic at a time.

    @mr88 I did test the outlet. There is 110 there. Before the flood the radio and lights would work on shore power and the refrigerator worked all the time. I should mention we found the alternator is shot (being underwater for days) so I don't know if that factors in to this DC/ac issue
