    96 Super Sport electrical question

    I recently replaced the ignition breaker switch. The old one was stuck on which drained the battery. Now that it is replaced, when it is off, and all other breakers are off, should I have zero amp draw? The hatch motor switch seems to be energized even with all breakers off. What about bilge pumps? If I had the wiring diagram it would be obvious, but without it I'm faced with a multimeter extravaganza or the option of asking my friends here on PN

    On my 1999 SAN, I believe my hatch is not energized unless the ignition switch is turned on. I have no idea how my bilge was wired originally, but i now have a rear bilge pump on a float switch that is wired directly off the battery to always be energized. And both midship and rear pumps are also wired to come on with the bilge switch manually.

      Hi nothing should be working without that ignition breaker on.

          I'm not sure about bilge pumps. On my 1998 Super Sport my hatch is off if ignition is off. I just installed a new head unit with blue tooth and learned that the head unit does get some power when ignition is off as it remembers the bluetooth info. If I disconnect battery the bluetooth info is lost. That is the only thing that I have come across that gets juice when ignition switch is off.
