    Give the dash a good bump around the ignition, ill bet it starts buzzing again.

    Does it start? Check for power at helm engine harness. Your battery 12v goes to the starter, and then feeds the power throught an in line fuse AND a circuit breaker. Check fuse and breaker.

    Maybe you could call the manufacturer and get a schematic from them.

    Yes the boat does start..... The Starboard side starts but does not give me the tone or dummy light.

    Sounds like a bad connection between your engine "Hi temp and Low Oil Pressure" warning sensors. Find the connector the 2 wires plug into near the engine harness. Disconnect, inspect, and clean. Disconnect battery if using a wire brush. If not fixed, clean plug at dash.

    That will be fun. Have had boat 3 weeks before she was put to rest for the winter. Much more complicated than my older ChrisCraft..

    Thanks, Scott

    I'm telling you a quick tap on the buzzer will make it work again. Mine does this occasionally.

    Not as hard as you think. If you lift up on the back of the forward bench seat, (slides up) and reveal three access panels to get at all your controls and gauges easily. I it may be an easy fix as a loose wire (like it was on mine) or a blown fuse. I'm just saying it's easier to access and diagnose as you may think. And depending on what year I may have a schematic at home....

    Let me know how it works for ya.....

    Thanks Phillip and RB480

    I did not know that the bench seat back slides up for access.
