    Re: system check (jc7765)


    model no:e115fpleec
    serial no:g04655787
    oil:currently in the process of switching over to xd100,boat has had xd-50 ran in it
    when i bought it and i am its first owner.
    scratching my head on this one, i come to find out that my partner was trying to help me by starting up the motor for me while i parked the truck,he had pushed the button on the throttle handle moved it forward a couple times thinking that is how you start this motor. I dont know if this could be the reason for the system check blip?
    thanks for the feedback

    OK, there is either a interruption of power or ground to the electrical system or you could have a bad guage.

    If the guage just cycles through there should be no problem with running it.

    If you are the type to tinker see if everything is tight on the back of the ignition switch.
