electrical gremlin in my 96 502 scarab 26ft
so as if recently my scarab has acquired an electrical gremlin, my tabs stopped working are stuck at the top. when i hit the switch the radio cuts out, takes a sec to kick back in.
noticed that when the horn works everything else seems to work, but horn is currently not working now so i have no control over the tabs. luckily my trim works and trailer trim.
sorry for making this short, at work boss is hovering around.

This is why I named by Wellcraft Coastal Loose Connection... However, the radio powering down upon trim pump activation is typically a low voltage issue..trim pump sucking up all avaialbe power. Hopefully wellcraft used relays to switch the pumps on/off directly from the battery bank instead of the switch panel/accessory panel. Could be as simple as corrosion in a plug/switch or may indicate a bad pump motor. Any fuses blown.

where is the fuse panel? under the steering wheel?
also my fuel gauge seems to be pinned to the top now after my last fill up of a full tank. is this related?
sorry for all the newbie questions but the boating world is new to me.
