    Water pressure gauge

    Just curious if anyone has insight on why my gauge is not reading. Unit only has 30 hrs right now. I’m making an appt for local dealer but they are slammed right now. The engine has a strong stream at idle and full throttle.

    Gauge froze or the tube from the engine is clogged.

    Yamaha has a water pressure sensor, it actually sends an electronic signal to you gauge unlike the old school gauge that registered by water pushing a column of air and moving the gauge needle.
    I’d probably start there.

    That would save me a gauge every spring.

    If the dealer will not cover it I have a spare gauge from my 2021 ZX225, I moved to the digital through NEMA. Willing to sell it at a reasonable price so let me know if you are interested, shoot me a PM.
