No Power at Master Power Switch?

BCB Family,06 Pantera ClassicI was hoping you might provide me with some insight. I dont have any power at the master power switch or livewell in or out. However, I do have bilge and horn on the a10 panel (nothing else). Through my research I have found that the terminal block and 20amp breaker are the usual culprits and I have replaced all connections there, cleaned the block, and replaced the breaker. Per other discussion posts, I know that the bilge and horn power supply is directly from the battery and the rest (acc, aerator, recirc, etc.) is through the master power switch, so there must be a missing link (connection) somewhere between the terminal block and the master power switch, correct?All fuses are good - checked and rechecked. That being said, what do you experts think? What should I do?Thanks in advance for your help!

Check breaker at the battery and wires through the terminal block on the transom, then pull the master panel to see if a wire has come off a switch. About 2006 the vendor had supplemented terminal spades that were not ITC Molex brand and they don’t hold as well.

Is the easiest way just to drill out the 4 small rivets holding in the master power switch? Thank you for your response!Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk

Seems if power is coming in the terminal block and leaving the terminal block. But not 12 volt at the master theres a break in the wire which is not likely. I would probe the wire above the terminal and make certain that 12 volts is actually leaving the terminal block

Start at the circuit breaker, move to the master switch wires, last check the terminal block on the transom.
