Hello all,
I have a 5.7 L Merc with 419 hours in the Sundeck. Early this season I was occasionally getting a fault that would put the engine in guardian mode. The DTS display would say "Engine throttle level not operating properly". After shutting batteries off it would reset and run fine.
I'm not happy with the local SeaRay dealer in Seattle so I took it to the Cobalt dealer who works on Mercs but more so on the Cobalt Volvos. They hooked it up to the code reader, tightened some connections and it worked for a few weeks running 2x/week. System faulted again, took it back to Cobalt, tightened more connections, worked for a week...
Frustrated that Cobalt couldn't fix it I had the SeaRay dealer look at it. Being a 2010 they updated various firmwares and softwares etc. Boat ran great for a month. Boom, end of August system faulted again. Took it back to SeaRay and I'm getting a BUNCH of faults as follows:
Guardian_UXPowerLimit code 323
Engine MisFire code 396
Oil Pressure_Low code 12
Guardian_Active code 9
RxDoc1_SOH code 101
RxDoc110_SOH code 216
RxDoc7_SOH code 186
RxDoc9_SOH code 215
RxDoc3_SOH code 103
Dual_CAN_SOH_Faults code 150
The codes are time stamped and the last 6 happened at the same time. The SeaRay service people are unsure of what is going on. They have sent the codes to Mercury engineers for some help, so they say. The want to replace a sensor in the throttle level, a computer under the helm and the large fuse breaker on top of the engine. They admitted not knowing if this will fix the issue(s) or not. Any ideas on what is going on with the engine? I have had a trip planned to go to Canada in the boat next week, just got our NEXUS passes, have been trying hard to fix the boat and no one can figure it out. We are not taking the boat and going by ferry but I still need to find the gremlins... thanks
