Revised Bilge Blower Discussion


I had my Carver 396 (gas) for 2 years now and the blowers have never worked correctly. I replaced all 4 blowers and the 4 relays and only 1 blower works.
The owners manual that came with the boat has a wiring diagram and it doesn't even show the 4 relays that are installed next to the blowers in the bilge.
I called 2 highly rated ( 5 star) mobile marine repairs services and was shocked to here they will not service Carver blowers.
What I would like to do is to simply have the switch on the bridge or the switch on the main DC breaker panel turn on all 4 blowers at the same time.
I have read all the articles on this forum on this subject and it seams there is a significant amount of confusion on how these blowers are meant to work.
Does any have experience changing the blowers to a more simple logical control system?
Thank you for any help.
