Bow light replacement

[verk182]

My new bow light just showed up so I pulled the old cracked and broken one off and low and behold there is no wiring going to the light. Is there a harness that has fallen off and is eternally lost in the bow of the boat?

It might be easier to fish a new wire to the front light, then trying to get the old wire back.

Try a magnet on a string to see if you can pick up the old wire.

Yuck, something simple always turns into something strait out of hell.

Where does the wiring for the bow light originate from?

 

[timmyboy76]

did you remove the backrest.

 

[verk182]

I could not figure out how to.

 

[timmyboy76]

lift it up, then snorkel the "darts" out of top.

is the bow open behind the backrest? Just got the boat back from the shop yesterday and it didn't look like there was access behind the backrest.:cheers:

There is no access that I know of behind either of the cushions in the box area.
