Electrical System
12 Volt Receptacle
A 12-volt receptacle is installed on the console. It is easily accessible and can be used to charge your
cell phone, operate a hand held remote spotlight, etc.
Battery Switch for Dual Batteries (Optional)
The battery switch on the 25 Walk is installed behind the hatch
located next to the transom door on the starboard aft corner of
the cockpit. This switch is for battery isolation, parallel operation
and disconnect. Generally, you would install one dual battery
switch with a single engine application and two dual battery
switches with a twin-engine application.
The circuit breakers are installed next to the battery switch panel and are labeled aft bilge, forward bilge,
trim tabs, stereo and accessory.
•
Place all the switches in the off position.
•
Turn the ignition key on (both ignition keys for a twin engine application) and ensure that
the engine will not turn over.
•
Turn the port battery switch to the one (1) position on the switch and turn the port ignition
key to start the port engine.
•
Turn off the port engine ignition key and the port battery switch.
•
Then turn the starboard battery switch to the two (2) position on the switch and turn the
starboard ignition key to start the starboard engine.
•
Never switch battery positions while the engines are running.
To ensure that the battery switch/switches will turn off, place the switch/switches in the off position and try
to start up the engine/engines. When the switch/switches is/are off, you should not be able to start the
engine/engines.
Caution:
To avoid possible alternator/battery damage on twin-engine installations, make
sure that the dual battery switches are never left so both engines are connected together,
(i.e., never leave a switch on “BOTH” or “ALL” or “1 and 2”). The preferred switch
position is port engine to position one (1) on the port battery switch and starboard engine
to position two (2) on the starboard battery switch.
Circuit Breakers
Circuit breakers and/or fuses protect the wiring on your 25 Walk. In the event a device
stops working, check to see if the circuit breaker is tripped or if the fuse is blown. The
circuit breakers are installed in the following locations:
•
The circuit breaker panel is located on the starboard side of the bilge area and
is accessible via the bilge hatch that is installed on the aft deck. The main
breaker (50 amp) is installed at the bottom of the circuit breaker panel.
•
Breakers and/or fuses for the aft bilge, forward bilge, trim tabs, stereo and
accessory are installed above the main breaker.
•
Additional breaker switches are also located on the switch panel beneath the
individual switches. See the Switch and Breaker Panel information later in this
section for additional information.
