Hi All, firstly - apologies for the confusion - damn Flu must be messing with my brain! as far as I am aware it is indeed a 1989 hull - I will though on my next visit attempt to verify this by the hull number - when you say 'molded into the transom, starboard side' I am assuming that would be on...
Hi, thank you all for your input and advice, I went down to the boat this morning and found an interesting thing - I will attach 2 pics of the switch panel that I find interesting - note the 2 switch? reset? buttons that are missing - unless these are the emergency stop switches that you...
Hi, again - apologies for the late reply - life just won't stop!
You mention a 'Kill Switch' where would I find this ?
I have non of the history of the vessel as we bought it from a junkie who got it in payment for cash owed!! So, I don't really know if the helm controls were changed when the...
Hi, apologies for the time taken to reply with an update - life has become very busy!
So, the new starter motor was fitted to the second motor and new oil-pressure switches fitted to both motors, then we swapped the jerry-can plus hose across to the second motor and tried it - exactly the same...

My apologies - I forgot that you are not here in Oz!
I have ordered the parts after receiving a quote and confirmation that they are the correct parts for our engines - including express post (from one side of Australia to the other) AUD $460 - not too painful!
If this gets the motors running...
Hi, we had a technician have a quick look this morning - he found that both the oil pressure switches were disconnected (one broken off connector and one broken switch) and advised us to purchase a couple of those first as well as a new starter motor for the port motor.
The motors are 2003...
Hi, thx for the reply, not too clever with forums etc so apologies for not replying to your PM
I have managed to get hold of the VP EFI Diagnostics manual and will check the pages that you have advised - thanks again.
I am going to the boat this morning and meeting a marine technician who knows...
Hi,
I believe the alarm sounds continuously until the engine starts - I cannot at this time remember if it returns once the engine stops - I will check next visit.
I have not heard the 2 beeps from the starboard engine (the one which runs in the start position) I will check the port engine for...
Hi there, apologies for the delay - pretty bad weather put things on hold for a while but I have now been to the boat and tried a few things:
My engine diagnostic connector has 10 wires
The wire at pin E is Grey with a black stripe
I did some tests on the key ignitions and they both read the...
Hi, thanks for the input, I have managed to find a manual 'Volvo Penta EFI Diagnostics GM Workshop Manual' online for $17 is this the correct bible? I just noticed the 'GM' bit that you did not mention and want to make sure that I buy the right book.
I am a little confused about reading the...
