alarm issue

[rowdyrog]

Hey guys, I'm new to this forum. I'm hoping i can find some help with an alarm problem that i'm having. I have a 2008 sea ray sport with a 5.0 MPI. I was running for about an hour to hour and half when i got an alarm. The alarm beeped twice every 30 seconds to a minute. All the gauges checked out find oil and temp. Temp is reading 170 and oil 40 psi. When i got home i even put a multi meter to the alternator and it checked out charging at 14.5. i also turned the key with out cranking the motor and the alarm was still two beeps every 30 sec's to a min. all fluids are topped off. The motor has 21 hrs on it. This is my first sea ray that i've owned. Is an engine alarm a solid beep tone? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I had a strange alarm issue with my 4.3tks. The engine alarm would sound briefly while on plane. As I recreated the incident, I found that if I held the rpms at exactly 3000, the alarm would continue steady. I disconnected each of the three sensors (temp, oil, and out drive reservoir) successively, to try to identify which was causing the alarm, but the problem continued. After about a month of this nonsense, I disconnected the wiring harness connector from the ecu module, turned the ignition on and off then reconnectd. It's been almost a year now without any problems. I have no idea how that fixed the problem, but it did!

Thanks! I'll definitely give it a shot. I'm willing to try anything.

Could be a bad sensor. See this thread: http://clubsearay.com/showthread.php/34174-2-tone-alarm-when-engine-is-off

Sorry it took me so long to get back on here. Just wanted to let you guys know what the problem end up being. The alarm was caused by a bad water pressure sensor. Hope this helps out anybody.
