    Doubt it, not enough smarts in the motor or the boat for that.

    When you turn the ignition key to on, does the horn make one chirp or beep? This tells you the horn is working. If you start to run out of fuel or have low fuel pressure, the horn should sound off continuous, not just a single beep.

    Why is it that you guy's get on this forum when you have a problem, but just can't seem to answer the simplest of questions? You have Johnson and Evinrude master techs and others with real hands on experience here trying to help. I am asking myself why! This boat and motor seems new to you, sometimes when the warning horns stop working when they are supposed to it will just be a single beep and then they don't work. I was only trying to find out if your horn is working now. Have a good day.

    Well does the chart say if you run out of fuel the motor will sound one beep?

    No, this is not the place for that. I had to wash my mouth out with Budwiser for just thinking it.
