Mine has a breaker on the on/off switch directly on the unit. It needs to be pushed in. Also, did you accidentaly knock the cabin switch? That's just the 2 that I know of, good luck.

This is a picture of mine, it was painted red. The switch is in the upper left corner next to the meter.

If I'm not mistaken I think he has TRS drives, so the trannies push everything forward. There's actually a ton of room in those compartments. I can actually get myself in between my engines and the bulkhead, and I'm not a small guy.

Mine went bad too a few years back. I replaced it with a Zantrex unit and I couldn't be happier. It's a great charger! It has remote monitoring and programming, too.

It is a SSMIIIA boat, but you are correct. Trannies make it tighter. But Speedmasters give it reliability and the possibility of adding more HP...
