A followup on Josh’s post: 1. A couple of times I have accidentally turned the key switch off while the engine was running and my brain was elsewhere. I immediately turned it back on again. I have noticed any problems resulting from this, but I don’t know what the symptoms would be if I had damaged something.
2. In addition to the rotary 1, 2, All rotary, I also have a on/off toggle switch next to the rotary that must be also turned on. I don’t know what is wired to it, so does anyone know what is likely to be the purpose of that switch? My previous boat only had the rotary.
