Started my machine P 1000 today . It starts fine runs , fine , shifts fine . Headlights work both high and low beam. The aux power plug works, the dash display works . Turned the heater on and no go.Also windshield wipe is no go . The ammeter isn't showing anything ,its blank. signal lights don't work either .,winch solenoid doesn't work either. Checked fuses ,checked grounds , moved relays to different spots I'am almost thinking that there's a fuse someplace that I don't know about ,or else the ign switch has gone bad inside . The other problem is occasionally the amp meter shows but as soon as I turn anything on thats not working it goes out [blank] .It has the aux switch plate in the dash so wondering where it gets its power from.?? Any help or what else to look for would be appreciated . I'am kind frustrated after trying different things today.

I’m far from an expert on here but will offer a little thoughts.

It’s difficult to help diagnose without understanding how your system is wired. Each machine is different for these add-on items.

I would start by tracing out the offending items to see what feeds them. They must have a common point. I assume they come from some auxiliary fuse box? If so then what triggers the fuse box to power on? You could remove the power wire from it and jump the box to battery which will help confirm which direction the problem may lie.

mice or a fried circuit board somewhere. Looks like you're going to have to start digging. How's your test light and meter skills? There's probably a wiring diagram available on here somewhere.

without a schematic or a wiring sketch, hard to say, but I’d start with a loose connection, bad ground, etc……

Or disconnect the hot +12V to one accessory at a time - process of elimination

Got it all figured out this morning . The Honda Aux fuse box grd wire was the culprit . The grd wire was just crimped into the bat connector. I grabbed the wire this morning and gave it a tug and it came right out. I put a new connector on the end of the wire and soldered it in. Installed it and now everything is working like it's supposed to. Thanks for all the replies.
