    Nothing until you hook something up
    My 342 had 2 open plugs one + and one -

    Nothing. It could be prewired to the back for a washdown pump or it is for a chartplotter if you don't have one.

    I told the Admiral to turn it on when it's hot under the deck because it stands for "Air Conditioned Cabin".
    She feels cooler.....we don't have air on the boat  :p

    @luvinlife , at least you got a few "straight" answers before the peanut gallery chimed in.  ;)
    One of the things I like the most about the forum (besides all the GREAT advice and tips of course) are the playful jibes and friendly humour.

    so I took a look at mine yesterday, it has a blue wire and a black wire going into it and then an brown/orange stripe and another wire going out of it.  The problem is I couldn't see where those wires go to... does anyone know where they go??  I'd actually like to use it for the chart plotter... as far as I can tell it doesn't do anything (nothing turns on/off when pushing it)

    @J3ff - I am pretty sure the 3 wires are +12v, ground and illumination(switch lights up via +12v)...

    I know there's an extra wire in the engine compartment right at the back, starboard. I used that to power a fishing device off the ACC switch.

    The blue wire is the illumination circuit.
