Hi all,
Brand new member and it took me to have a problem with my motor to find this website. Looks pretty informative. Ok short story long. About 5 outings ago blew yellow 20 amp fuse under cowling of 2001 yammie 115hp four stroke. Replaced and blew again. Sent to mechanics and he said traced it to a pinched wire at the rear of the compass where it meets dash. (All the dash instruments are wired to the ignition) Good I thought. Had it out for about 4 times after that without any problems then all of a sudden last week blew same fuse 3 times. Now when this happens the tilt trim, motor and dash instruments do not work.) Fishfinder does. Can anyone shine some light on this and what might be the problem. Funny thing is that it is intermittent and no matter what I do to it at home, cannot get it to blow again.
regards
Kirko
