Nav and Anchor Light Wiring

Postby aross60 » February 22nd, 2019, 7:43 pm

I have a 1999 Carver Voyager 530.
My Anchor/Masthead light has stopped working.
I have power to both the lower helm and flybridge toggle switches but no power at the light pole on the targa bar.
Does anyone know the colour of the wiring for the anchor/masthead light - I don't have enough wire at the top of the targa to pull the wire out to see what the original sheath colour is.

Thanks
Andrew

Ok, different Carver, but I've got a set of circuit breakers on my bridge in addition to the panel of circuit breakers in my salon. Any chance a breaker that you haven't checked has kicked off?

Nav lights are gray, with a black ground. Carver uses standard ABYC wire colors:
