    Made my first run in morning and everything was good according to the GPS 72.3 ran around and fished a couple spots no problems. Decided to head to another spot running about 60 the alarm started going off with 3 beeps and started to slow down. I shut it down and let it set for a few minutes fired it back up 3 beeps again and it was then into the guardian mode. when it sets there and Idles the whole motor shakes like it has a giant cam in it.Made it back to the ramp to load up. Motor has 372 hrs. on it and has been serviced regularly headed to the shop in the morning to see what's up

    Going to need information from the G3 Full Reports to see what the fault(s) were in the Freeze Frame (Fault) History.

    Talked to the shop last week no power to the number one coil said there is a short in the wiring. They ordered some parts said it would be a week or so to get them from Mercury. Once I get the report, I will post it

    Picked up the boat Sat it runs great. The shop said a dead short in the wiring to the number one coil. No visible damage to the wiring so hopefully this is a just one-time thing.
