F32 fuses

[FrankG]

I recently acquired a 1984 F32. Can anyone tell me where the fuse block is located? My bilge blowers will not run and because it is both of them, starboard and port, I expect it may be related to the switch or electrics close to the switch. There are breakers in the panel beneath the helm which look ok, but I wonder if there is also a fuse block or inline fuse for the blowers?

Did you check for power at the switch ? I am not sure if there are fuses or just the breakers ( its just the breakers on my f 36 )

There are no fuses. The switch's are actually circuit breakers built in. Pull the panel back in the salon and check main breaker for blowers , then on to the switch's themselves.

Thanks both.

My 1974 F32 has a 12VDC fuse block at the left side inside the panel below the lower helm.

When did they change to breakers?

My 77 has fuses as well. But when I bought mine 2 years ago, the blowers were bad and they had to be replaced. Hope you don't have that issue, it was the first thing I fixed in 2012. Now one of them is making noise, so I think they may get some salt the way they are installed causing a shortened life span.
