We bought a 1998 405 Aft Cabin and during the Survey the inspector could not confirm the ice maker was operational because of a fresh water pump issue. Knowing this when we bought the boat, I figured since the aluminum plate below the ice tray was cold that at least the compressor was functional. After bringing the boat back to our home dock, a three day journey, I determined the causal factor was an inoperative cooling fan motor. I removed the fan motor and tested it and sure enough it was not working. After a little research I also found the fan motor was not the original and the motor and fan had been replaced at some point. I ordered a replacement motor and fan from Boatman’s I-net Marine and received it promptly. I replaced the motor and fan, about a 1-hour job, and now it works like new.

On to the next project!

Hmm? The picture loaded 90* rotated, will have to figure that out, too!
