How do you do that? I've done more than a few engineroom checks and never triggered an alarm in the process.

Most oilpressure sensors have 2 leads 1 for variable resistance to show pressure readings and1 for just a ground when it sees little or no pressure that goes to light and buzzer ,if you use a buzzer then hook it up to the
Light

I've never done it, and it's probably something I'd hire my marina mechanic to do, but it makes sense [I've read the whole manual many times] to have to remove the exhaust 'jumper' hose between the manifolds for access.

We got all standard manuals with the boat, but they're mostly about maintenance and operating items, not detailed repair items.
