Last weekend I took my boat (2014 195) out to the river with no issues. Only have seven hours on the boat. I work out of town, so a week later I get back and my wife says there is a humming noise in the garage. My bilge pump had been running for several days and it would not shut off. I had to disconnect the battery. Anyone have experience with this? any help is appreciated

Yes! Multiple times. Every time this happened to me it was a bad pump.

Probably a bad sensor in the pump. Now's a good time to replace it with a better pump and a float switch.:cool:
