Breaker panel lights

Post by Jay Fusaro »

No laughing - On the breaker panel on our '98 445 most of the lights for the individual breakers are functional - dark when the breaker is off and green when the associated breaker is on. Some of the lights don't work - do you need to remove the entire panel to access the individual lights? Is it worth the effort? Seems like a decent chance of Murphy's Law (making it worse) by removing the entire panel. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks!
Jay

Not sure on the 445, but on a lot of boats the panel is hinged so you can get to the backside relatively easily to do maintenance.
