Although I am not absolutely certain about the last two years of Maramu production,  Maramus previous had three breakers for the interior lights. Forward cabin lights had a breaker on the drop open panel with the mast light breakers. Saloon lights on the main 12 volt DC panel adjacent to the companionway and the aft cabin with a single breaker most commonly mounted on the vertical panel with the open storage compartments just behind the marine toilet. As you face this panel, it is usually in the upper left hand part of that area.

 

Let us know what you discover…

I have never seen a CB for the aft cabin lights. They always operate with the main cabin lights CB on the 12v panel.  It's a Maramu, not a Super Maramu and may well be simpler. 

 

Kind regards

Graham,

 

Dumb question but, have you determined the DC breaker for the aft lights is operational?

 

 

With best regards,

Can anyone help me with an electrical problem in our 1988 Maramu 46 #240.

All the lights in the aft cabin have failed.  We checked all the bulbs,
of course! We have established that the problem is with the positive
cable as we have checked the negative (ground) cable and it has
continuity. 
We've established that, if we get power to any one of the light
fittings, all will then work. 

We can't work out how the positive cable gets from the circuit breaker
on the 12v panel and the first light in the aft cabin.  All the cables
are hidden. 

If anyone has had this problem before or has access to a cable routing
diagram, I'd be glad of your experience. 

Kind regards

Graham
