Spring uncovering let down...

[NROSS]

My 2014 G22 has been in hibernation since October. It was stored under shrink wrap with the batteries onboard but disconnected. I removed the shrink wrap, put the batteries on charge, cleaned all the connections including on the battery switch and hooked everything back up. Nothing works except the starting circuit.

Question is. Is there a main circuit breaker somewhere that tripped? Batteries are good, contacts are clean and tight, starter works but that's it.

Not The Ideal Way To Start The Season

Understanding your disappointment and frustration, my only suggestion would be to call the Dealer or any Bennington Dealer and get some input from their Service Dept. Not knowing where you are located I can only hope you have a dealer nearby.

Good Luck, hopefully others will have better suggestions

There should be fuses or breakers at the battery. I'm assuming one battery is the start battery and the other is the house or (everything else/accessory) battery. Do you have a switch? And the dumb question...............Are the batteries good?

CWAG,

He said Batteries are good and the only thing that works is the starter.
I don't have that model but it sounds like fuses
Hate to say the other possibility could be damaged wiring due to mice
Common as we all know to have mice during the winter storage unfortunately.
I have decided to store my boat on my property after experiencing mice damage for 2 consecutive years !
Shrink wrap as we all know doesnt protect the boat from mice and the dealership doesnt use dryer sheets and doesn't allow me to place them throughout boat during the winter months.
Only solution is Storing The Boat on my property from this year on.

Great idea!

and hooked everything back up.

You sure you hooked _everything_ back up? On my single battery boat, there are more than one set of wires connecting to the battery. The main wires to the starter are the big ones, but the accessories are powered through a separate smaller gauge pair of wires that also need to be connected to the battery.

wiring or fuses would be my guess. if you're getting power to the starting circuit. So if you have power to starting circuit, is the engine cranking? Or am I misunderstanding? If you have power to starting circuit. You should have power to all accessories as well, correct. Unless fuses are blown or just flat bad due to weather.

It is probably a fuse at the battery for the boat harness. This happened to me a week ago when I put my boat in. I could start boat and had gauges but all electrical accessories were without power. See pic below. On my boat fuse is on power distribution panel.
