    Stratos Livewell Aerator

    I have been intending to post this thread for awhile but always forget. The front livewell in my Stratos 258 doesn't work. I have been using for tackle storage (small boat) as a result. I would like to make it operational though. When I turn the front aerator on at the bow, the red light above the switch turns on but the aerator doesn't come on. The rear aerator works just fine when I turn it on at the bow, but the red light above that switch does not come on. Does the red light indicate a fault with the front aerator, or does the fact that the red light for the rear aerator does not come on mean it is burnt out? I have not rreally given this a good look and checked power anywhere as of yet. Thanks.

    The light indicates that the switch is in the on position. It is probably out on the rear aerator switch. More than likely a bad aerator, fuse or wiring to it from the switch for the front one.

    Thank you for confirmation. As I mentioned, I have not looked into this yet. Do you know where Stratos typically locates the fuse block? I'm guessing it must be up in the console. Thank you.
