I accidentally left my mid bilge switch on overnight. Thought it had fried the motor but there must be a fuse somewhere as there appears to be no power to the pump. I am having difficulty determining where that fuse might be. I am struggling to trace the wires back to the battery or a fuse panel. Does anyone know where the bilge pumps are fused?

On my 2002 31 Open the circuit breakers are under the stairs. I had a bad breaker on my aft pump and had to replace it. The killer is you have to take the stairs out to get at the breakers. Not a tough job just time consuming. Those breakers are on the "Unswitched" side of the distribution panel so they are wired directly to power.

Much appreciated Matt. I do have DC breakers under the stairs so I suspect that is the location of the issue.
