1994 javelin 150 evinrude alarms

[Amatuer44]

Yes can anyone tell me what the alarms mean as far as the beeps

[89-289FS]

Here's what I got somewhere for my 89 Johnson 200GT. I think it came from the Johnson/Evinrude forum here on BBC. You might want to post on that forum

I hope it helps.


Here are the warning tone for your motor
When the ignition key is turned to the ON position, the warning horn will beep once, indicating the horn is working.

NOTE #1

Horn sounds continuously and engine WILL NOT exceed 2,500-RPM

Engine overheat

Reduce engine to IDLE speed and return shift handle to NEUTRAL position.
If the engine overheats, the S.L.O.W.™ overheat warning system will automatically limit engine speed to approximately 2,500-RPM. The overheat problem must be corrected and the warning system reset before you can return to normal operation.

For information about evaluating the overheat problem and possible "on-the-water" fixes, refer to Operation Section, ENGINE OVERHEATING.

After the engine has cooled and the warning horn stops, shut off the engine to reset the overheat warning system. Restart the engine for normal operation.

NOTE: If the engine overheats repeatedly, see your DEALER. After an engine overheat, have your DEALER torque the engine's cylinder head screws, and, if equipped, exhaust cover screws.


NOTE #2
Horn sounds rapid, short tones that vary with engine speed

No oil flow from pump

STOP engine or limit engine speed to a
maximum of 1,500-RPM

NOTE #3
Horn sounds one short tone every 20 seconds

Low oil level in oil tank

Refill oil tank
DO NOT operate the engine above 1,500-RPM if the oil pump is not working. See your DEALER for service.
Oil is at reserve level in oil tank (approximately 1/4-full). Avoid operating the engine on oil reserve. Refill oil tank with recommended oil as soon as possible. Refer to Fuel and Oil Section, FILLING OIL TANK.

NOTE: Failure to refill the tank could result in serious engine damage. If oil tank is run dry, the oil hosemust be purged of air. Refer to Fuel and Oil Section, OIL HOSE INSTALLATION.

NOTE: When the warning horn signal indicates no oil from the pump, operating above 1,500-RPM can result in serious engine damage. If you must operate the engine above 1,500-RPM to return to harbor, oil must be mixed with the gasoline at a 50:1 (2% oil) fuel/oil ratio. Refer to Fuel and Oil Section, FUEL MIXING

NOTE #4
Horn sounds continuously at or near full throttle, but engine speed is not affected

Fuel restriction

Reduce engine to IDLE speed

If the warning horn signal stops as engine RPM is reduced, a fuel restriction is indicated. The engine can be operated at a reduced throttle setting to return to harbor.

Inspect fuel filter element for contamination and clean as necessary. Refer to Maintenance Section, FUEL LINE FILTER. Continued warning signals could indicate a problem with the boat's fuel supply system. See your DEALER for service.

If the warning horn does not stop when engine RPM is reduced, an engine overheat is indicated. Refer to NOTE #1.
