OK. I flip my blower switch and 5 other switches light up. Blower doesn't come on. Same with NAV lights, bilge pump, and others. Could I have a ground problem? Behind the helm or in the bilge? Where do I look?
I took out the breaker panel. All looks tight and clean.

Pretend I know nothing about wiring, mainly because I don't. Since it's affecting many different controls, I'm assuming it's some kind of main ground, like you said. It would have to be grounded somewhere on one of the motors right? Where would I run a new wire from - to?
