I am wiring a new panel from an original 1978 Catalina 25. I sniped the positives from the old panel and connected then to the new panel. The wires I sniped were on the switch side of the panel. I am only connecting the running and cabin lights.
When connecting what I think is the ground to the battery nothing is happening. Both lights worked before I sniped everything. Was wondering if all the positives get wired into the master switch? Are the wires I cut possibly all negative? Or if I need to find the correct ground that is not in the jumble of wires connected color coordinated to the non-bus side of the panel?
