Alarm

[TommyB]

ok. I have a 2018 190. Every three or four times when I am running freshwater through the engine at the end of the day after a few minutes I get an alarm beep steady. It shows a red engine symbol that I assume is temperature. Then the next morning when I go to start it it does the same thing. After I turn it on and off two or three times the alarm subsides. And I have no further issues for the day. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. 52 hours on my rig. Running in salt water ranging from 70 to 80°.

The one time I had that issue was when I hadn't turned on the flush water spigot on all the way. About 1/4 of the water I needed was getting into the engine to cool it. Have you checked to make sure there is enough water pressure? I know you said this is recurring, but it's a good box to check on the troubleshooting list.

Good point. I have it on the whole way. It’s the most pressure I can get on the eastern shore of Maryland, haha.
It didn’t do it last night. Go figure.
