Bow thruster question. 2003, Mainship, 390. Yesterday I removed my bow thruster. I also replaced the battery located at the thruster. During the disconnection of the battery from the thruster I discovered a second set of very large cables, 1 red 1 yellow, also attached to the thruster. With the battery fully disconnected from the thruster, these additional cables had 13.5 vdc on them. I turned off my battery chargers thinking that this may be supplying charging voltage to the battery, but the voltage on these conductors remained at 13.5 vdc. It appears there are 2 sources of 12 V power being supplied to my bow thruster.
1. Does anyone know where this second source of this power may be coming from?
2. Does anyone know where I can cut off this source of power when I reconnect my thruster?
