      If the gauge display doesn't wake up, it could be due to a lack of electrical power or a damaged gauge. Try these steps: replace the fuse, securely connect the couplers, replace any damaged wires or hubs, or replace the gauge itself.

    Why does my Yamaha Outboard Motor fuel management gauge show incorrect fuel consumption?
    • S
      Sharon WestAug 23, 2025
      If the fuel management gauge shows incorrect fuel consumption, the engine recognition may be wrong. To resolve this, default the engine number. Then, turn the key switch on in order from the portside engine to re-memorize each engine number.

    What does it mean when my Yamaha Outboard Motor gauge shows “----”?
    • K
      Kelly WarrenAug 31, 2025
      If the gauge shows “----”, it indicates that the digital signal is not being received. Make sure the couplers are securely connected and replace any damaged bus wires or hubs.

    Why does my Yamaha Outboard Motor fuel management gauge show incorrect remaining fuel?
    • J
      Jennifer GreerSep 2, 2025
      If the fuel management gauge shows incorrect remaining fuel, the fuel capacity setting is probably wrong. Fill the tank with fuel, and then set the correct fuel tank capacity.

    Why does my Yamaha 55BET trim gauge show the incorrect position?
    • J
      johnsonelizabethSep 4, 2025
      If the trim gauge shows an incorrect position, the initial position setting might be wrong, or the trim sensor could be damaged. Put the motor in the fully trimmed-in position and reset the initial (zero) trim angle. If that doesn't work, replace the trim sensor.

    Why is my Yamaha 55BET Outboard Motor gauge operating unstably?
    • C
      Carl JohnsonSep 7, 2025
      If the gauge operates unstably, it's likely that the resistor isn't connected to the ending hubs. Connect the gray 6-pin cap to the ending multi-hubs to resolve this.

    Why is the Yamaha Outboard Motor gauge response poor?
    • B
      Billy McmillanSep 9, 2025
      If the gauge response is poor, a market obtainable unit connected to the system may have failed, or the signal volume has exceeded 50% of the capacity. Replace the faulty unit or remove the heavy signal output unit.
