I ripped the deck out of my '88 Tristar 190 and hooked up an amp using the pos/neg deck cables. The amp was too much and blew what I thought was a fuse that is inline on the power cable from the original deck (little 5 amp or something), so I ran new pos/neg 8 gauge cable for the amp, hooked up the interior speakers, along with the ipod and it cranks loud!
Now, when I turn my key on the ignition, the left gauges don't work and the right ones max out real quick, the needle just shoots to max. Also, when I turn on the bilge pump, it runs very low like the battery is almost dead but the battery is good.
Any ideas on what to troubleshoot? I don't have a flush kit so I couldn't start the boat up but the starter would crank/turn just fine when I did turn the key for 1 second.
HELP!!!! I've even charged the battery overnight just to verify, no luck. Is there fuses anywhere that I could have blown? I tried resetting all the things on the dash with the push button resets.
I'm stumped.........please help a fellow MC owner out!
