2008 Optimax Pro XS 225 with 400hrs. ( Don't have serial # in hand, boat is at the storage.)
Been having this happen the past few trips.. Don't really understand.
When I go to open it all the way up to WOT, after about 5 seconds I get a loud "held out" beep, (it's not beeping off and on, just a constant sound.) It doesn't affect anything, if you just keep it down it still turns 6k RPM and hauls rear.
Weird thing is, it usually stops beeping after about another 5 seconds. Something else I've noticed, when it starts beeping, if you drop it down to about 5k RPM, it stops. You can get it back up to 6k, and no beep at all, she justs get on down the water screaming. Water pump pisses normal, full tank of oil, and the motor runs fine with no issues at all. I've been reading up on it a little and some folks are saying it's a sensor in the oil tank that thinks it's low on oil..?
What do y'all think? Thanks!!!
