Bilge-Pump Buzzer

[Jersey Jim]

...... The written posts seem to be at odds with the direction that the diode in the picture is installed...... The side of the diode with a silver stripe/band is pictured to the side of the switch. The unstriped/unbanded side is to the fuse side. The write up says the opposite or am I just reading it wrong........

Nick, I double checked my original write-up and realized I could have shortened the wiring explanation. In the pic showing the breakers, diode and fuses, the positive power comes from the breaker on the left of the pic, flows "into" the unbanded (anode) left-side of the diode, and exits "out' of the banded (cathode) right-side of the diode. This left-to-right positive current flow then goes "into" the helm's manual bilge-switch where it comes out of the switch's other terminal via the brown wire to the bilge pump. I hope I didn't over complicate things. That was not the intent.
