This weekend we were out and after wakeboarding for a while we parked. About 15 minutes later I noticed the depth finder was off. It is tied to the dash power, and normally would be off if the "ignition" switch was off. I started checking things out and the switch was on. We had issues with the switch once before so I thought I might swap wires with the "radio" switch next to it that is currently unused. That didn't work. I happened to lift the engine cover and check the main breaker and it was tripped. Any ideas what might have caused it? Do you think with the new audio upgrades and the Sure Power I'm now pulling more power through the main electrical system enough to pop that? Any suggestions on tests I could do to see if the breaker is going bad? I was thinking I could hook up an ammeter see what kind of power I'm pulling when I have a heavy load (stereo cranked and both batteries being charged).
