Mercury Optimax "oil pump output" alarm - 04/26/16 07:03 PM
I bought A used boat last year that has a 2005 225 OPTi max that only had 240 hours on it. Midseason an alarm went off and I took it to the local mechanic. After they did a lot of research they decided to replace the oil pump because the "oil pump output" alarm went off. The factory and others said that they had never heard of this code before. It was a $1,500 repair.
I've probably put 5 hours on the motor since the repair. My boat went down in a tournament last week with the same issues. They hooked it up to the computer and it is still throwing the same code. They are now saying it could be the harness or the brain, possibly sensor related.
Have any of you heard of issues like this?
