[QUOTE="Frankenfish, post: 481301, member: 25701"] The motor is a tiller with electric start, the motor is also wired into that master switch so that I have a single kill switch for all electronics in the boat (minus trolling motor on it's own circuit) in case of maintenance or emergency. The way it's set up, should the motor hold a charge, I'm pretty sure it would be able to then act as the positive to the rest of the circuit until that charge was depleted. The motor is a new Merc 20hp tiller with electric start. There is nothing between fuses and switchboard, masterswitch goes to the fuse block and motor and fish finder (not hooked up at the time when noticing the issue). The fuse block has individual fuses for each device, shoots current to the individual switches on the switchboard, the switchboard is then connected to an LED Flood light, a few parallel'd LED strips, a bilge pump, 10 year old navigation lights, and a voltmeter/usb charger/cigarette outlet combo thingus. Thank you both for weighing in! [/QUOTE]
