Hi all. I wonder if any of you fellow 268 owners can tell me why my power socket in the head (240v) has stopped working? I plugged in a heater which ran fine for about an hour, but then the power was cut. The heater still works when plugged in the socket at the galley. I can't find any sort of trip switch or fuse other than the switch for both sockets on the main AC panel. Any help gratefully received! |

Did you try resetting the GFI? The little heater I use on my boat will trip the GFI just by turning it on sometimes. |

Thanks for replying. My other 240v socket works still, and the only breaker on the whole boat controls everything to do with shore power. I did turn it off and on just in case it did anything, but the head socket is still dead. The next thing I need to eradicate is the 2pin/3pin adaptor which is in the socket. I don't have anything with two pins which I can plug in, so I'll find another adaptor and see if that's gone pop. Thanks again. |

Just to tie up this loose end, it was the two pin to three pin adaptor. All working again. |
