Lewmar Windlass power?

[Zundels]

Our 2009 R-25 Lewmar Windless anchor has no power. The thrusters are both working fine so assume the isolation switch near the batteries is good. Where should we look next for power? Fuses?

Also, the step switches on the bow have never had power. Any experiences getting them working?

Thanks, Don

Not sure about the R-25, but on my R-27 there is a fuse breaker at the helm (seperate from the panel) and if you are not careful you can accidentally hit it and open the circuit

When I received my 2007 R-25, the windlass was also powerless. I found the breaker in the locker under the starboard side of the v-berth.

On 2008 R25 , the breaker is on the port side storage under the v berth.

It will have a breaker.
For safety's sake always leave it open circuit (switched off), until needed.

Thank you all for the reminders. I did find the breaker in the V-berth port locker, flipped the switch and we have power to the helm anchor switch now.

The two foot switches in the bow still have no power. Ideas on where to look for fuses or is it time to get out the gauge and check current flow in the wires?
