I have a 2007 Rinker 360 having problems with engine hatch it will not go up. I did get it to go up with with the bypass. Checked all battery's and wiring. Besides the 2 battery switches to the right of the stern is there any other switches that need to be on. This boat is new to me just got it last fall and it was working then. Also the blower will not go on. I did change all the instrument gages and replaced the freezer. If you can please respond to my email address fryz89@gmail.com

For the hatch, turn on the battery switches and the helm power switch.

The blowers have circuit breakers at the battery switch panel.  Look for a push-to-reset button.  Also, check the connections at the top of the fire extinguisher in the engine room.  The fire suppression system is designed to disconnect the blowers in case of a fire.

Does everything else work ok?

No have problem with spot light and a few other other problems look for a fuse box that all of that comes out of. there got to be a spot that all the wires come out of. I'm thinking it going to be at the main switches in the back of the boat.

Also check the ground block, which is a strip of screw terminals with about a thousand black wires attached to it.  It's probably attached to a wall in the engine room.  Make sure all screws are tight, and no wires have pulled loose from the crimp terminals.

Getting a alarm when I start the engines I did have the tack recalibrated and now they do not work at all but getting the hour meters light up. But no RPM'S just just thinking could this make the alarm go off.

will you get a alarm if you are low on gas

LaRea

There's no alarm for fuel level.  Check the level in the gear lube reservoir on top of the engine.  

Here's a summary of Mercruiser alarm codes.

Thank you found the problem when I changed the tack the dummy tack behind the panel was not connected  right when we changed the wires tack works the blower works and the hatch works I guess that there is a relay in the dummy tack to control all of  that
Thank you everyone
