I have two on my bay boat. one is in the bottom and is on a toggle. a big one I have mounted higher in the bilge and the auto switch is higher. It only will come on if there is a situation. like a through hull broke, a wave over the bow and a hatch open, hole in hull etc.




This is what I'm thinking. I just need to get a flashlight and start hunting for the second one. At the helm my rocket switch for the bilge is labeled: port and star. Port turns on a bilge and star does nothing. The guy at the delearships said that power does not have to be on for the auto to work. He said I do nothing for it. If I tarp my boat wrong at home and rain fills it up the pump will still work. I paid extra money to have the auto installed so this is bugging me.

if you can't find second one or switch, put the plug in and put a hose in the bilge and after a few minutes the pump should kick on. then you will at least know that it will kick on without you having to turn it on.
