We took the boat out to Lake Don Pedro saturday to test out all the mods and check the engine after the top end rebuild over the winter. Everything works fantastic with the exception of the temp gauge, nothing happens and the blasted warning buzzer is on all the time!
Now i know some might think the buzzer is just for oil pressure but i think it's also a temp warning but not sure. Anyway the oil pressure was 25psi at idle and 40psi at speed so that's ok. we'd lift the cover and check the temps at the risers and hoses and all was good. the risers were slightly warm and the hoses were warm as well. The front of the termostat housing was cold and the back was hot. All's good there. I checked the sensor hookups and they are no brainers, you can't switch the wires. It was working just fine the last outing last year. I even crawled under the dash and doubled checked connections at the gauge.
My questions is does it matter where the lead to the buzzer is connected on the ignition switch? I was messing around with the panel and disconnected the wires to remove the panel. The buzzer is connected directly to the ignition switch. Anybody have a clue on this before i start tearing stuff apart? Lee you out there?
