Small red light

[paul swensen]

I have a very small red light that is under the clock on my dash board. It is a Cummins gauge package. The light is not on nor have I ever seen it glow but I cannot find any reference to it. The boat is a 1995 Tournament with as315hp Cummins power.
Can anyone tell me what the purpose of this light is. Thanks

Sounds like either a bilge pump indicator, or a high water alarm. Kick one of the bilge pumps on manually and see if it lights up. Also, search for a float switch in the bilge that is located somewhere above the bilge pumps and has no pump associated with it.

If you ever see it come on, check your bilge.

...didn't know what it was for. i found out that, at least on my boat, it means the 'accessories' switch is in the 'on' position on the d.c. main panel. as near as i can tell, nothing is hooked up to it.

I apparently have the same engine/year in my 32. If it is behind the Cummins panel it is most likely a guage light that has slipped out of its holder. Mine has one that lights the 'Cummins' name on the panel.
