1990 3600 Open owners manual question
#1
I have a 1990 3600 Open and the labels for my warning lights are worn off. My manual shows the 4 red lights for each engine so I know what those are for. But I have two green lights that I can’t determine what they are. One of them flickers constantly.

Also my manual is form #921006 but dated 5/88. My actual dashboard and the one shown in the manual are different. Does anyone have a later manual for a 3600 open that might more accurately show what I have:
- My gauges are mounted from behind the panel. The manual shows them with square surrounds on the surface.
- My DC breakers are all mounted to the starboard side vertical panel below all of the warning decals. The manual shows breakers at each switch on the panel forward of the wheel.
Thanks,
Dennis

The green lights are most likely for the HALON fire system you probably have.

Your correct. The green lights are for the halon system. Thanks.
I’ve noticed there is no wiring info regarding the halon system in the manual. In fact the wiring diagram in the manual is completely wrong fir my boat.
I asked Scott (great guy, BTW) if there is a different manual and/or a correct wiring diagram available. No to both.
I can’t even identify the circuit breakers in the panel to the right and below the helm. Scott couldn’t help with this either. I guess this is one drawback to a 30 year old boat.

I have an 86 36 Open. I don't have those breakers to the right of the helm like in your picture, but I do have a set inside a panel below and to the left of my steering wheel. They are labeled. I can take a picture and post and maybe that will help you out. I also have a set of breakers inside my cabin for all the cockpit accessories that looks like your panel.

BUT, right now my boat is in Ohio and I'm in PA and I wont be over to visit it until this virus crap blows over.

I have a 90 Open with the same breaker panel. I think my labels still show. I plan to visit the boat this weekend and will snap a photo and post it here.
