i was checking out my motor and noticed a screw on this switch but nothing was goin to it and no loose wire in the area and was wondering what it was. is it the pressure switch, or a temp switch. i thought the pressure switch was on the injector manifold

That is the oil pressure switch! Without it being hooked you will not get a no oil signal. The wire that goes there comes from the EMM, it is a white striped wire but I cannot tell what the other color is.

we searched and searched and there is no loose wire and i don get any alarms, even when i had the software hooked up to remove code 57 there was nothing else. i went to evinrudes website and pulled the part page and it shows this as the pressure switch. its dark out but i found a picture here on bbc of the same setup where you can see the pressure switch.

To find the wire look at your EMM ( on the back of the block) there are two large connectors on the starbord side of it. Look at the top connector it has 4 rows of wires, the row closest to you is numbered 1 - 6 bottom to top. #2 is the wire you are looking for! As best I can tell from the wiring diaghram it is white with a tan stripe. I believe the # is stamped on the connector. Hope this helps.

That picture is NOT from a 2004 225HO, it is from a 1997 or 1998 V6. There is a wire that attaches to the oil pressure switch.
How come you are working on such and oldie, or are you just seeing if we know what we are talking about ?

Now those last pics show what you have on your motor and that style does not use a pressure switch like shown in the first pic. Yours has a pressure sensor that transmits the type of pressure peak to the EMM
Someone installed a 2001 or earlier oil pump on your motor and that is why it has the pressure switch on it.

That's so strange. I have the same thing on my 2005 200 HO DI. My mechanic thought I was missing a wire too but then we found out that I had a pressure switch. What's baffling me is he told me that the EMM shows a no oil alarm code on it but I am pretty positive I didn't hear it. I just got done rebuilding my power head so I need to make sure I'm getting a signal for no oil.
Having that switch on the oil pump may be from left over stock and used on the early BRP built FICHTS - 2002 and later.
IF you order a new oil pump today or see the later model FICHTS or DI engines, there is a plug or a solid casting where the pressure switch used to be mounted.
