Outdoor Rocker Switch / Lighting Issues 2024 R025

[DennisL]

Gang,
I have another issue I am hoping someone can help steer me on. The outdoor lights are acting up. The stern underwater lights no longer turn on, and the outdoor lights work but only if the stern light switch is turned off. And at that, the outdoor lights seem oddly dim. I am guessing it is an issue at the switch, because the switch seems to be shorting things out, so I was hoping to start by just replacing that. Does this issue sound familiar to anyone? Any tips on how to solve? Also - does anyone have a link to a replacement switch? I have looked online for the specific info through other threads but when I find the links, they do not appear to match what is on the boat. Its a simple 2 switch bank without any light up features.

Thanks so much in advance. Leaving Sunday for a week in the San Juans and hoping to solve as much as I can before then!!
Dennis

Do you mean this switch?

My underwater lights were inconsistently working, replaced the switch (for the second time) and working again. I must be spraying too much water on these things while washing the cockpit. 5 minute job.

It’s a double switch bank, so im not sure if that’s them or not… I was hoping to pull the little cluster out and replace with the same double switch. I’m guessing same for me I probably sprayed them
