Thanks all for the replies

the pump has stoped working, as I don't have a maintenance manual, does anyone know how difficult it is to replace the bilge pump

hi. Had the boat for a few years, don't have decent user manual. Should the two batteries be different, I read else where that some boats have a starter and leisure batt, but I didn't know if this boat should, and which one, batt one or two? I ask as when left switched to the batt one, overnight...

Thanks for all the replies. The problems was a bad connection on the oil presure sensor. Looking at the wiring diagrams I have , the alarm only has 2 inputs, the oil and water temp sensors. So advocates ce above about a gear oil sensor doesn't tally with the diagrams.

Hi, I just bought the boat, and don't understand why you can select to have one or two batteries connected. Also if the mains are not plugged in after one week there is not enough charge to start the boat, is that normal or do I have a poor battery. How can I work out which one it is... Thanks...
