As you can see there is 1 and 2 but no clue what that means. Also if you see the back of the switch you can notice that its wired for the lower part of the switch.

My Cafe is an '89, with the newer cabin layout. I don't even have a panel like with those switches. They probably are for the engines. Just my assumption.

I would guess either engine mains or accessories but since it is grouped together with the head maybe it is for the toilet pump and mecerator. #1 for the pump only if you have to go #1 and #2 turns on the macerator if you have to go #2.

You know, I now don't think it is for the engines. I'm really not sure now. It's kinda far back in the cabin to be an engine switch.

Have you tried switching them & seeing what does or doesn't work? Sometimes that the only way I can figure those sort of things out. I'm not much on electrical stuff.

Maybe someone with that same panel will chime in.

:lolhit: That is funny.

I was thinking maybe it was a generic way of marking optional accessories. But would think they would have done it a better way.

Would suck to have to go all the way to front of the boat just to power the engines circuit. Our kids accidentally hit the switches all the time when underway.

I did the whole switch on off thing didnt see anything happen but it seems they are to send power to somthing and then there is another switch from there im lost

I'm with Sea-Dated. #1 pump for a #1 and #2 macerator for a #2 ........ That is FUNNY.

I think I'm going to add that to my switches in the head & even put up a sign explaining what the numbers are for.

Hell .... I'll take any laugh I can get nowadays.
