Shower Bildge Pump

[Fin Addict]

I just noticed that my shower bildge pump was burnt out, it was poping fuses and I traced this back to the shower bildge pump was burnt out the pump started to melt. I am not sure if I received the boat this way as I bought this as a dealer demo and I have never used the shower at all. I was doing something on the motor and noticed that the fuse was poped so after trying to replace the fuse and it kept poping I traced this back to the shower bildge pump. I replaced the pump kit and all seems to be working fine.

I was wondering if anyone knows what hoses are connected to this shower bildge pump box? I am not sure if the waste water from the sink also goes to this bildge pump box. I noticed that there is a hose from the shower to the box as well as another black hose which I am not sure where this hose comes from and the a clear hose to the throuhole outlet on the side of the boat.

Does anyone know how this is set up?

Thanks for your replys.

i think the sink drains overboard direct..

I'm not sure but I thought that the shower water just went down into the bilge and got pumped out when the level rose high enough.

NO - there is a seperate shower bilge pump - but I believe I only have one hose going in and one discharge hose - which discharges behind my refrig on the port side. The fresh water has to be on in order for the pump to activate I believe.

I just replaced my shower sump assembly.
Wiring: always powered up, same as the bilge pumps. If the sump fills it will automatically cycle.
Fuse is location is on the panel/box with the three battery solenoids.
Bottom fuse on mine.
The hoses are:
Drain in the head floor goes to the sump pump collector box. The drain goes up behind the refrigerator, and drains directly overboard.
