Re: Wiring woes
It sounds like you either blew a fuse or disconnected a power or ground wire.
Nothing personal, but while boat wiring isn't exactly rocket science it can get more involved than people expect. It's a good idea (actually just about a necessity) to plan everything out ahead of time and make schematic drawings of what you're going to do. At that point it becomes a simple matter of connecting the dots. I've seen some awful nightmarish looking wiring on the two boats I've bought, it's amazing neither one of them went up in flames.
