Bilge blower not working

[acp]

I have the port side bilge blower not working I replace the blower nothing. I am not getting power to it. The breaker is on I think it might be the blower module were is that on the boat and were I can get one I have search online no luck. I have 2001 340 Sundancer.

Is there a secondary breaker underneath your helm? double check the fold out door under your helm for a pushbutton breaker

If it turns out to be your module you can pick one up at flounder pounder

It’s located on your bulkhead in your engine room number 12 on the diagram

If you have a multimeter I’m sure you can test power coming in to the module and out to the blower and possibly look for a loose connection as well

Thanks Joey I will check the power coming out of the module to the blower. If I am not getting power coming out that might be the module is bad on that side of the blower. Were it's at going to be a bi--- to remove that panel that's were the breakers fuse are on that panel on engine bulkhead not allot of room.

Why not simply wire the motors together , powered thru a switch at the helm and a fuse? Why add electronics to a salt water environment to go bad?

I think TTmott explained that - the module is designed to shut the blowers off in the event of an auto halon discharge (in addition to shutting engines and genny down)... Tom - do I have that right?

Carter thank you for your respond but my blower controller module is different than the one you are mention my controls module only operate the blower in the bilge you can see the picture on Joys pick on prier post Sea R ay part#1190396. I don't think it controls any other function. It only operate the blower to turn on and off in the helm or control panel by generator switch. I am going to use a relay from the blower 2 to turn on the blower 1. Will keep you guys posted when I get it done. TY

OK a follow up on what I did. The diagram I did above post it work I save $137.00 on a new the module. More money for beer and party.i Happy Cruising
