My oil buzzer keeps coming on, on my 95 merc XRI when i goes on i stop shut it off turn it back on and its off, Then i check the oil tank that i just filled up and its full. Even the reserve on the motor is full. so you think its a problem with electronics or what?

I have a 95 225 3.0 merc. Cherck the oil float switch in the oil tank in the motor cowel. Find the switch wires--unplug them and check with ohm meter to see if float switch is bad. I think the system monitor that switch about every1-2 minutes----not continually. Therefore turning the key off and on may allow the system to run 1-2 minutes before alarm sounds -----------But you "still" would not have oil during that 1-2 min..let us know what happens. If you want to be safe untill the problem is found --add oil to the gastank( double oil).
