Hunter 50 / 49 oil change pump

[Laid-back]

My new to me 2011 Hunter 50 has an installed electric pump that drains the oil from the engine and generator. When decommissioning for hurricane season, I could not determine how to get power to that pump. I turned on all 12 v breakers with no luck. I ended up hot wiring the pump directly to a battery and it worked fine. The wires go into a large bundIe that make it difficult to trace. I don’t know if this was factory installed, but any ideas where the breaker might be?

Look in the little compartment under the Nav Station where the Battery Switches are. That is where mine is located.

On my 49, the oil changing pump breaker is on the battery switch panel. It is not located on the panel with all of the accessory breakers for everyday items like lights, VHF, and Radar.

When struggling to find a wire, you can always try a tone generator. Then just listen to the area an the tone will come through the wire showing you that which you seek.

Here is an example.

Mine is on the battery switch panel at the end of the settee as well

On my boat it is on the forward end of the battery switch panel but it is a small push in/out switch. Easy to miss

Thanks for the replies. I have left the boat for the summer, but looking at pictures I took before we left, I see an oil change pump breaker in with the battery switches under the settee as mentioned above.
