My friend has a Boston Whaler, the starboard side electric down-rigger will not power up. Checking the voltage at the female receptacle were it plugs into shows just over 6 volts but shows no continuity on the positive wire, negative wire shows continuity.
What would cause this low voltage, pinched wire.... The port outlet show 12 volts at the plug with continuity and works fine.
All connections are cleaned with the batteries showing 12 volts.
Somehow I cannot wrap my head around this, but I am sure someone here can...
