Bow Bag Electrical


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

Wanting a little help with my new bow bag install for my 2020 MB Tomcat F22. I just finished the plumbing. The electrical is my final part of the project.

The boat came from the factory with no bow bag or pump, but did come with the electrical bow bag toggle switch and pre-wired. The switch does light up when turned to fill or drain.

Question is - Where may I find the final connection to the (factory) pump? I’m assuming it has an in-line fuse as well and am hoping to find and utilize this existing infrastructure before I cut and abandon the existing wires and splice in new. I traced the wiring from my toggle switch and the wires go into a black hole rats nest of wiring. Any possible locations to look?

Also, can anyone confirm the wiring colors in the back of the toggle switch? Assuming the middle terminals (yellow and black) are 12v hot and ground with the top and bottom terminals (red and orange) running to the pump for power to fill and drain. Will verify with multimeter.

Thanks!

-Duke

Figured it out. MB left the wires prep’d for future connections under the helm. Just had to dig in and find them. Unfortunately the reversible pump does not run with this existing switch. Verified by hooking straight to the battery with Wakemakers provided rocker switch. MB toggle switch is a SPDT and I need a DPDT toggle switch. Purchased the correct switch and will wire up accordingly.
