SystemCheck Warnings
Due to the limited number of circuit inputs and outputs to the EMM , 15 – 30 HP
models have limited warnings when a SystemCheck gauge is installed. These
models only provide tachometer signal and the LOW OIL warning to a System-
Check gauge.
Refer to the Operator’s Guide for a complete explanation of warning system
functions.
Engine Overheat Damage
If a customer reports a loss of performance, use Evinrude Diagnostics software
to check for the following:
• Code 31; Engine temperature over range
•
Code 40; Engine temperature above range – Low speed
•
Code 43; Engine temperature above range
•
Recorded maximum engine temperature
If any of these service codes are stored, and the maximum engine temperature
is over 248°F (120°C), remove the gearcase. Inspect the water pump and the
exhaust housing megaphone for engine overheat damage.
Loss of performance will result from a damaged exhaust housing megaphone.
The megaphone can be damaged when a significant loss of water flow occurs.
Note: Engine damage due to overheat conditions is NOT covered by the BRP
Limited Warranty. Customers should contact their insurance company to file a
claim for financial assistance in the repair.
