V-Drive Warning Light
The V-Drive Warning Light is located in front of the
throttle on V-Drive model boats and is a warning
device used to safeguard against low V-Drive fluids,
which could result in overheating the unit and eventual
failure.
If the light is on above 1200 RPM, the oil pressure is
low. Check V-Drive oil. (Check while cool.) If the
problem persists, see your local Malibu dealer.
