    First, thanks...

    I just wanted to thank everyone who threw out ideas for my Skeeter earlier this year. I replaced the battery from Batteries Plus, and it's been great. Sadly, the boat continues to stall and refuse to start after replacing the battery and the main relay(dealer). They said if it happens again, to change the key switch, which I'm doing today. Thankfully, it stalled at the ramp this past Thursday and I've become a pro at loading it with the TM.....

    I'm also looking for advice on my bow nav/anchor switch. It has been disconnected for awhile now, and I don't have a diagram to follow. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks again.

    Eric

    Yay, the trim switch is on the right. I found a 7-pole nav/anchor switch diagram, but mine has 8 poles. Not sure what the 8th one is for...

    Can you post a pic of that diagram ? The 8th pole may be a jumper or used for a lighted switch.

    If you're still looking, PM me and I'll take my bow panel off and make you a diagram.

    Take a look here for schematic info. I have been told that Skeeter uses the same wiring schematic they just keep adding stuff to it.

    It's less of a diagram but a YT video. I have the jumper wires too. Can I assume that the terminals are the same on each switch, minus the 8 terminal?

    Thanks!

    Thanks,Eric

    Here’s how mine is wired. And it’s an anchor/courtesy light switch. Down for anchor and up for courtesy lights. IMG_7769.jpeg

    Thannk you, I'll give it a try. It will probably be the same.
