Hello, we purchased our 310 '99 end of last season and upgraded our stereo and added flat screens below and above. After install we found out that the A/C converter needed upgraded, which we did. Since then we still have electrical problems.
When plugged into shore power and radio on (not loud) and only radio on, it's draining the battery. Once we turn the radio off it only goes up to 10volts and not going all the way up. The very credible guy who installed is going to take a look at it next week but is scratching his head. The Marine that it was stored at this winter found a few fuses blown when they winterized it and repaired those and we hoped that was going to solve the issue but we put it back in yesterday and it's happening again.
As well after the radio install we have had problems with the generator. It will fire up and then shut off sometimes after 5 min sometimes 20 min. It always turns back on. They tried to replicate this out of the water before we put it back in running a hose through it and it ran for 45 min a few times with zero issues. It's when we are underway that this keeps happening. Not sure if these are 2 seperate issues or related as it all started after the radio upgrade. Any help or advice on what to check or whatever would be greatly helpful. They have a service ticket in with the Marine as well as the guy who put in the radio, but both parties are stumped at this point.
Additionally, all 3 batteries (deep cell) were replaced when they replaced the A/C converter.
Thanks!
