If a circuit breaker continues to trip, do not hold the breaker in
position to activate the electrical circuit. See an authorized Axis dealer
immediately to locate and correct the issue before operating the boat.
The circuit breaker panel is located on the driver’s helm shifter panel. Circuit breakers are
resettable, unlike fuses that require replacement.
In addition to the circuit breakers that control the majority of electrical activity on
the boat, Axis engines also have a fuse box on the engine. See photo.
This fuse box aids in controlling various electronic functionality within the engine.
Its purpose is to prevent electrical overload to various key electronic elements. If the
fuse “kicks” o, it tends to be a signal that certain vital operations have experienced
an electrical surge that could have caused signicant damage to the system if the fuse
had not blown.
The fuse box can be opened to replace the fuse. (Unlike circuit breakers that “trip,”
a fuse must be replaced.) When possible, have this function serviced by an authorized
Axis dealer, who can check the entire system in an eort to determine the source or
cause of the fuse malfunction. If the fuse blows during an outing, never pry or force
open the box. The top should pop o the housing with minimal eort. Inside the
housing will be several fuses, the size is denoted on the top of the fuse. There is also
a Primary and Secondary fuse box under the dash that contains fuses. Each box has a
labeled/detailed picture of location, size fuse, and which circuit it protects.
If a fuse blows repeatedly, it is symptomatic of a recurring issue that must be addressed.
Such repair should be undertaken by your authorized Axis dealer.
Your Axis boat is equipped with several electrical harnesses providing power
within the drive train and to various ancillary functions of the boat. Due to the com-
plexity of the boats wiring, much of which is inaccessible inside the hull and under
the deck, any time an issue is suspected involving the wiring or any of the harnesses,
the boat owner is strongly encouraged to have the boat serviced by an authorized
Axis dealer.
Electrical wiring or harness issues should always be
addressed by an authorized Axis dealer. Alteration of
wiring from the original Axis design could result in shock
hazard, potential spark that could lead to re, or other
dangerous situations. Any disruption of the wiring from its original plan and resultant damage to
components or the boat is not covered under warranty. Individuals could also be injured by such error.
Axis Wake Research oer batteries as an option. If the boat owner chooses to
equip the boat with batteries of his/her own choosing, there are certain require-
ments for starting and the operation of the boat, which is addressed later in this
section. Please review that information as it can be critical to avoiding a situation in
which a battery(ies) is completely drained and leaves boaters stranded away from
shore, or which can cause signicant damage to the recharging alternator.
Batteries are located beneath the observer seat in all models and all congura-
tions.
