I went to help my friend troubleshoot his 1989 Montauk 17. He had no power to anything except his Garmin plotter. No engine tilt, no ignition or running lights. Brand new battery and all connections look correct and tight. Is there a main circuit breaker or fuse that could have blown! I'm thinking that's a possibility, but have no idea where it would be. His battery is located under the console. I thought I could help as I have a 1982 Montauk but our wiring is a bit different. I have dual batteries located after under the bench and a battery selector switch. He has no switch at all.
Any help would be great!

Thanks in advance!
