My bow lights quit working, took apart and wiring is black with corrosion. How do you replace wires due to hidden inside bow. Wire very short and appears stuck and not moving.What is the path of wire route from bow to control panel.

From the hardware, the wiring comes forward into the rubrail track, under the rubrail insert. It goes down the side of the boat and then through the gunnel.

Originally there is a junction box on the aft corner where the bow and stern light wires meet then go over to the rigging tunnel forward of the splashwell and then up the tunnel to the switch.

To re-wire you will need to remove the insert of the rubrail.
