The dash lights for instruments on my '07 31PC do not light up? I've checked for a tripped breaker. My aux battery is fully charged and all other 12v items seem to be working fine. Is there an inline fuse that could be blown? Or, something unplugged? None of the lights come on on the dash when...

For some reason, my entire dash lights do not turn on when the switch is activated, yet, I have no tripped breakers as far as I can tell? Auxilliary battery is charged and other 12v items work fine. Is there a conventional fuse some where that could be blown?? Boat is a '07 Formula 31 PC.

Will be changing from outdrive raw water pick-up to thru-hull. I have 2 questions for those who have done it: 1. If using a clam-shell style pick-up do I still need to use a strainer? 2. Will the 1 1/4" opening provide too much water pressure for the impellor? Does it need to be restricted...

Does anyone know the hose size for the quick connect fitting used to flush raw water cooled engines? My boat is '07 31PC BIII's with 6.2L mx mpi's. Is it 3/4" like pickup tube at transom, or 1 1/4" like suction hose at raw water pump inlet, OR something else? Thanks for any replies.

Not sure if this is where to post this but I have a question regarding manifold replacement for the DIYers. Will be doing my port engine and want to know if the main manifold gasket needs any type of gasket sealer? It appears the gasket has some type of sealant on it already?

I have finally succumbed to the dreaded pickup tube failure I've read so much about on this forum. Does anyone have a source for new tubes that are better priced than the $169 ea quoted by Formula tech support? Mine was not cracked but loose at the top and a little long. Has anyone trimmed their...

My 07 31 pc w/6.2 Blll lost power at about 3200 rpm on starboard side. Was on plane for maybe 5 min before the rpm began ocillating between about 2800-3200 rpm. You could feel the power drop and surge then drop again after 30 sec or so I came off plane and it ran fine at about 1400 rpm but after...

I am getting wet carpet in the cabin, specifically under the settee starting approx two feet from the AC unit and gets wetter closer to the forward berth.

I have a 07 31pc that the 6x9 speakers at the base of radar arch have stopped working. All other speakers are playing fine. Looked thru manual for the kenwood head unit to see if there were fader controls I could mess with but could not find anything that helped with the problem. Does anyone...

I'm pretty handy but this is the first time I will be changing out the impellors and plastic housing on my raw water pumps. I have Bravo III's so the engines face forward with the pump assembly on the bottom starboard side of each. With the boat on a work rack should be fairly straightforward...

The subwoofer on my upgraded Kenwood factory system is humming loudly when used. No music comes from the sub, just constant loud humming. I have not made any modifications or messed with any other wiring. The last time we were on the boat it worked perfect. This last time out, the sub is...

I replaced all the batteries on my '07 31PC last October. We last used the boat in November, so I haven't been to the high-and-dry until today to go and check on the boat. Never have we gone this long w/o boating..but , we had a baby late Dec and have been pretty busy! Today, I checked the...

Went out Thur/Fri overnight and wife noticed water in stowage areas under setee in salon. Thought it might be a leak at the a/c drain pan just to the right but it wasn't. Checked the cabin sump in the floor aft and it had overflowed..switch was not working and I lifted it manually..still not...
