Sean,

As far as the bow thruster lights flashing with the instrument switch off at the panel - the thruster has it’s own switch at the panel. It isn’t wired in with the other nav instruments. It should be labeled and probably on the right side. On my 458 with the Würth panel, it is wired into F6.

Fixed the bow thruster this weekend. Thanks all for the guidance.

There were 4 wires leading to the bow thruster box under the v berth in front of the water tank. One pair were red and black - obviously power. I had to cut off the connecting block holding the other two and reversed the two wires, reconnecting with a wago connector.

@Simon:

How do you like your Jet Thruster?  What size did you install?

I have a 430 and am looking at either installing the Quick retractable bow thruster or the Jet Thruster.  I like the Jet Thruster concept.  My only concern is the power draw it requires.
