I was just bragging on this motor the other day on the triton board and now I've jinxed myself. I've been running this motor for just about two years and It has been flawless. The other day I was out pre-fishing for a BFL tournament and I got a check engine code. Loaded the boat and took to dealer and they have advised that my E.M.M. has died. Is this just some fluke situation, or is it something I've done? If not could I have done anything to have prevented this? Is this the tip of the iceberg and should I expect more electrical/computer problems? Lastly, I've been quoted a price of $1700.00 to repair. Is this price correct to repair a bad E.M.M. Thanks in advance for any information regarding my current situation.
