The manuals / Wiring diagrams that came with the boat. Show a circuit for Fans. The panel has a labeled switch with wire connected to it which then travels to a 'buss board?' on the bulkhead. Was the wiring run to the locations shown in the manual and terminated? There are currently no fans installed on board.
Also the buss panel thing is labeled with each wire having a number but nothing in the manual crossing those wires to which circuit they belong to.

My 2006 B323, the fans were an option(and even their locations), so were dealer installed, and thus not in the manual. The dealer just tapped into the lighting wires for the fans. My manual has a chart with the number that should be different for just about all of the wires. It seems like you'll have to pull the wiring to trace, but it sounds like they are there, you just have to find them..

IF there is a "Fan" breaker switch on the DC panel and wire from the breaker to the DC bus bar and if there are wires exiting the DC bus bar, there must be fan wires that are terminated "somewhere". You will have to trace the wires exiting from the bus bar to determine where they terminate. When I installed 4 fans on my boat, I simply spliced into the cabin lighting wires at each location that I installed a fan. I did this with proper terminals and housing/enclosure at each location. In your case, since you have a dedicated "fan" breaker switch, I would trace the exiting wires from the bus bar and use them accordingly.

Thanks all. Finding the wires in the bulkhead was easier since they were terminated in the wire loom above the Buss bar. Any way we are currently in the process of installing fans in the cabins. Chris
