ISSUE SOLVED. I was able to find the issue from that screenshot provided, looked up the air temp sensor in manual, went to ohm the sensor with no reading...failed sensor. To confirm I used a series of resistors to make an acceptable value and inserted into the pcm side harness *tah dah* no more 6 beeps! Now its a matter of figuring out how to get to the sensor as its on the manifold behind the oil reservoir. Any suggestions for approaching is appreciated.
Have to loosen up the oil tank (often easier with lower cowls off) so you can rock the tank and then access the sensor.

You will have to at least partially remove the retaining hardware (I do seem to recall having done it once without completely removing the tank, or completely disconnecting the oil line, which is the most critical thing).

Will report back when sensor arrives.
Would it be wise to change the inline oil filter on the tank while I'm all apart?

Also noticed my butterfly is not all the way open at full throttle is this proper or does it need adjustment. First pic is how it is now and second pic is me opening the rest of the way
In realality it will probably not have any effect on performance, though it is at the point I would address it just because I might
Check and adjust all hotfoot settings first starting with closed throttle
Thank You Leon Pugh
Ended up adjusting throttle open about another 1/8th and changed in line oil filter. Everything back together and no more beeps. Taking it out Saturday to test on the water.
I was just reading in another thread that the shifter method of priming the oil system returns the motor into break-in mode. Am I stuck in break in for 120mins or is there anyway to get it out?
Does it need to run through the complete prime cycle to activate break in as I only let it go 10 seconds before keying off?

Key on shifter to f back to n 3 times but I didn't allow it to go through its complete cycle. I was able to get it to the dealer on the CDS he showed me 0 hours remaining on break in. Lucked out there, also had him do a pump prime sequence for me.
Took the boat out yesterday, no more beeps... Ran smooth and pulled in about 20 fish. Was a good day!
Squeaked by on that one. Happy to hear all is well!
