Electric diagram

[bills60]

I have recently purchased a O'Day 322 and I'm looking to update the lightig system, does anyone know where I can get a wiring diagram.

why do yo need a wiring diagram? if you already have lights build off of that system....on my 32 I replaced the existing light fixtures and because the wiring was concealed I could not relocate the locations......I did notice that each of the lights had its own circuit back to a wiring terminal block on the port and starboard side which was helpful when installing separate switches for the cabin and vee berth lights.
Now I found these terminal strips in the cockpit lazeretts near the bulkheads

Also I don't know if the factory manuals have these wiring diagrams cause a manual for my 32 just does not exist but if you need one go here

Bills60, do you have the original manual? I know the diagram is there...I am at work now, but if you dont have it I can scanned that section and email it to you, let me know.
Congrats on getting the 322, just got mine as well.

BTW, what kind of update you are thinking about?

I plan on putting a machined aluminum negitive block with tapped holes 1/8 and 1/4 in a position above the engine and then run a very heavy cable from this block to a point behind the fuse box wiring adding another block. I will do the same for the positive side but it will be carefully insulated. The idea is to reduce long runs of small gage wires. more importantly it cleans up the wiring and makes trouble shooting easy because you compartmentalize the wiring. I did this before and the gremlins just disappeared. It has become a feature on Southerly's boats, they take it futher and move batteries as well. Not needed on a 30
but to open the fuse box and see the main power supply for pos and neg saves a lot of hassle. a diagram of the work and labels add greatly to it.
