Chapter 6: Plumbing
Autofloat Switches
• The automatic bilge pumps use float (autofloat) switches to automatically turn On the pumps whenever water
rises to a preset level in the bilge.
• The autofloat switches are normally mounted next to the bilge pumps they control.
• Test the autofloat switches often.
Autofloat testing:
1. Lift the float switch test button
to turn On the bilge pump.
• If the pump does not turn On,
check the push-to-reset
circuit breaker.
• If the fuse is good but the switch
still doesn't work, it may mean
the switch is bad or possibly the
battery is low.
2. After testing, push the test but-
ton all the way down to return
the float switch to auto mode.
When the test is completed on each float switch, you MUST push the test button ALL THE
WAY DOWN to return the switch to auto mode!
