On a 2016 Beneteau 370 with a Yanmar engine. The blower is not starting up when I push the power button. Normally the blower comes on when I push the power button. The blower starting signals the alternator to turn on. Since this is not happening, the alternator does not come on and when the engine starts the battery light stays on and keeps beeping. Any suggestions would be helpful.
