No power to my aft controls including ignition, blower, nav lights, etc. Batteries left on, dead, new batteries, boosted and started fine. After a four hour run shut it off tried to restart found everything dead at ignition but batteries full, everything else comes on just not the front switches, ANY IDEAS?

Circuit breakers mounted on engine? Mine did this so many times when I first bought it. Turned out to be loose battery connections causing breakers to trip.

On the engine block is an earth for the Blower, Rear Anchor light and one or two other things (Possibly macerator, can't quite remember!).

When my blower and Nav lights wouldn't work this was what my problem was.
On my vista it was on the Starboard side, pretty much above the starter motor.

There is also a relay mounted in the engine that might be going bad.
Its a 10.00 relay that if it goes bad you could be stuck in the middle of nowhere.
Took mechanic to start by jumping across the main coil. PUlled off I think the 4 bolts that mount the
reset buttons, its under that. What a bunch of crap that was cost me $365.00 for a 10 dollar part.
Shows up only on the engine schematic.
