does anyone have a wiring diagram for the LEDs? I can't find where they are all grounded to? I'm trying to install a dimmer for them and need the ground
They use common grounds, not sure if the courtesy lights are on their own ground but not likely. I would recommend using the power wire coming off the switch on the dash, this is how I see other manufacturers put dimmers on them. You can access this under the starboard bow seat back. Unsnap the vinyl flap to get to the back of the switches. The fuse box for them are located there also. @owen87 if it's not a fuse look at the back side of the switch and make sure the plug didn't fall off. Hopefully this helps.

Yeah I wound up rewiring the entire led system. Not trying to be a dick but the audio and lighting wire on these boats are so ass backwards it's not even funny. What a disaster, but I love the boat so I upgraded all the sound, wires, LED's everything myself.
My LED's, courtesy /docking lights, and center ballast are out. I'm learning a lesson about having a dealer 4 hours away. I also just bought the module to make the satellite function work, and it won't plug in to the Medallion controller. This is beginning to stink.....
The satellite module has a unique plug for only "siriusXM" ready radios. My screen has the "siriusXM" button on it. I guess that is just to make me feel better about paying for the premium sound and jamming to that one AM station I can pick up...
@owen87 do you have a stereo in your glove box? I can't remember on the touchscreen models. If so the satellite antenna should plug into it I believe. Open the door on the port side of walk thru and look up.
No head-unit on port side. It appears all audio is generated through the Viper II controller that powers the display unit. Only a head and sink in port side. No functioning glove box. But I did find a small fuse block, and it is blowing courtesy light fuses as fast as you hit the switch...
Awesome! Now, is that the amp you are showing? Do you also have the touch screen, or standard gauges? This is the main "brain" under my dash:View attachment 42876
