Breaker bad

[Deleted User]

Over the last year I've have 5 circuit breakers stop working. Today it was the bilge blower. Cleaning the terminals didn't help. I've used Blue Sea Systems replacements, which are good quality and have the white reset button with the rating number on them. The photo below shows the effect of salt air on 12 year old electrical components. I'm going to proactively replace all the critical breakers when I get the time.

Amazing, what salt air will do. 15 to go

Di-electric grease or Boeshield T-9 on the connections will help!

I use CRC terminal protector, works really well. It leaves a red coating on whatever you spray.

Thanks for the advice. Not sure why I bothered fixing the wiper breaker, I've never needed a wiper. When under way I look through Isinglass.

By the way, I can't log out of this site by clicking the account options symbol any more. Anyone else notice that? Using Firefox on a Mac.

Like Hotel California, "...you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave"

Hi Shawn...

Hello Shawn, admitting is the first step

I am going through this exact problem with my 2007 Rinker Atlantic 230 cc.  Replacing every circuit breaker after the ignition breaker went and left me stranded.  Luckily i was able to switch with another breaker to get her started and back to the marina.  Check those circuit breakers people!

Yeah......looks like you just can't leave.  Da*n Rinkers!
