Problem: Warning Horn Does Not Sound When Ignition Key is Turned to “ON” Position.
Possible Cause Corrective Action
Horn malfunction or open (tan/blue) wire between horn and
engine.
Disconnect tan/blue warning module lead (engine over-
heat sensor) located in cylinder head. Use a jumper wire
to ground tan/blue warning module lead to engine ground.
Warning horn should sound. If not, check tan/blue wiring
between engine and warning horn for open circuit. Check
horn.
Faulty Warning Module Check if all warning module leads are connected
Using incorrect side mount remote control or ignition/
choke assembly.
See info above
Problem: Warning Horn Stays On When Ignition Key is Turned to “ON” Position (Engine Cold).
Possible Cause Corrective Action
Faulty Engine overheat sensor. If warning horn sounds a continuous “beep”, the engine
overheat sensor may be faulty. Disconnect tan/blue over-
heat sensor lead at bullet connection. Turn ignition key to
“ON” position. If horn stops sounding, the engine overheat
sensor is faulty.
Faulty Warning Module Check connections-replace module.
Possible Cause Corrective Action
Problem: Warning Horn Sounds (Intermittent Beep) When Engine is Running and Oil Tank is Full.
Disconnect both low oil sensor leads (blue) at bullet con-
nections. Connect an ohmmeter between sensor leads.
There should be no continuity through sensor. If continuity
exists, sensor is faulty
Defective low oil sensor (located in bottom of oil tank).
If all of the checks are positive, the Warning Module is faulty. Replace Module and re-test.
