Deactivate exercise cycle for bilge pump on R23?

[Nickc]

I have a 2019 R23 on the hard for winter with periodic(1day/week) plug in to marina power via pigtail to Ac power to activate the boat charger. Although the boat has a full custom canvas winter cover --it has a clear plastic window over 90% of the factory installed solar panel and I am showing on solar monitor panel that both battery banks to be at 13.3v in full light condition without boat charger plugged in.
In an effort to eliminate all unnecessary power drain during winter storage-- Is there a fuse/fuses controlling the 1/2 sec bilge pump exercise I hear at approx. 2 1/2 min. intervals (24/7) that I can remove to deactivate the exercise cycle?
My 2019 R23 has 3 bilge pumps- 2 in lazarette & 1 in engine pod. I am not sure if one or all of them are being exercised at 2 1/2 min intervals. Since the boat is fully covered - water entering boat. should no be a problem. I must add that I am a believer in "if it ain't' broke -don't fix it". I did go all last winter with the exercise cycle going 24/7 and the original2018 batteries seem non the worse for it.
Any thought/input from others storing on land would be appreciated.

In the cave under the electrical panel at the bottom hard against the door frame you will find a 24/7 fuse block hidden under a mouse fur cover. There are hot fuses for stereo memory,co2 detector,and bilge pumps 1 and 2 and bilge alarm. Removing those fuses will eliminate battery drain. I pull mine and put the in a baggie on the steering wheel along with the drain plugs.

On my 2021, in addition to the 24x7 fuse block referenced above, the pod bilge pump fuse is in a in-line holder on to of the house battery bank.

Not sure why you are only plugging in one day a week. the Abso charger has an automatic maintenance mode. From the manual:

Thankyou both for very informative response! Tug Nuts continues to be a great resource to Ranger Tug owners. I will remove all fuses 24/7 fuses noted..I had no idea that fuse for pod bilge was on top of house battery bank.
I will speak to yard about leaving boat power continuously plugged in -- however they seem to have limited power feed capacity and rotate boats they have on power feed. Elvin, I continue to enjoy the various videos you have for R23 under "Cruising Elvin Ray".(Now if I can only figure out how to open the tapatalk upload images you included in your response)

Just to confirm....does the pod bilge pump on the 2021 R23 have the auto cycle feature? I never hear mine cycle. Maybe too well insulated back there?.There is no water when I pull the pod drain plug.

I just navigated my way through this exact issue as I put my 2021 r23 away for the winter. The 24/7 panel located in the mid berth contains the two 5 amp fuses for two bilge pumps located in the lazerette. The engine pod fuse is located in line very close to the house battery.
All three of my bilge pumps are timer activated. I only heard the pod cycle when sitting in the cockpit on very quiet days.

For winter storage --today -I disconnected/removed (7.5A) fuses for all 3 of my 2919 R23 bilge pumps. They all have the auto cycle feature.. rotates in sequence -pod bilge then forward, then aft bilge. The fuse (7.5A) for the pod pump is where this forum noted- direct wired from house battery with fuse enclosed in sealed fuse holder on top of house battery.
