Hi All, I got excellent advice from Mike on how to put in 12V plug from the panel behind the breakers... However now it appears the Shower pump has stopped working, press the button and nothing happens. This is the very same breaker I have to turn to get the plug to work and I'm sure this isnt a fluke. I have not tried to disconned the plug as I did not ahve the tools and needed the plugin more than shower but I'd like to see if I can't have both... Anyone have any thoughts to what could be causing this ?

found the solution

Hi all, found what the problem was. I had move a small "jumper" on the panel, this powered my outlet but not the shower drain... moved back and aok now however no socket power :eek:/

Find another source

Gaute, not sure what wire you moved but it sounds like it was the 12v line to the shower drain pump. Remember the pump only works when you have it switched on. I'll bet your socket will work if you flip the pump sitch on. Either way you'll have to find another qire to tie the socket into as you wont want to run the pump every time you use the socket. Mike

there are jumpers too...

Hi Mike, yeah I did turn the breaker on and button... however what got me confused was that the fridge and showerpump both are on same "circuit" and the only way I found that possible was the little jumper on the panel... moved it over both shower and fridge work but no outlet. I think I can move it over to the other side where the jumper is and I'm in business.. nice weekend project Gaute

Jumper

Gaute I agree I would leave the jumper where Beneteau had it and move the socket to the other side like you mentioned. Good luck Mike
