I recently purchased a '96 Tiara 31 Open. On my maiden voyage to my home port I discovered that several components switched at the helm were not working, electric window, instrument lights, horn and the electric hatch lift. I checked the switches on the DC portion of my panel in the cabin and all were lit except for the switch marked helm #2. Helm switch #1 was lit. I then discovered that there was a 40 amp circuit breaker tripped adjacent to the battery switches under the stairs and marked Helm that would not reset when I pushed it. I believe the problem is in one of the loads that this circuit breaker feeds and that it is one of the console loads or the hatch lift. Before I call a marine electrician I was wondering I anyone has any insight into this? My plan is to contact Tiara for a wiring diagram so that I understand how power is distributed throughout the boat, both AC and DC.
