Ok, so my last post doesn't make sense really and I don't know how to erase it.

My issue - 1985 Johnson 60hp outboard. The alarm in the control center is buzzing solidly as to warn of overheating motor, the buzz goes away when i giggle the ignition key and kind of turn it slightly.

Wonder if it is the motor overheating and the buzzer working but jiggling the key knocks the wire off, or maybe there is a buzz supposed to happen when 1st turning the key and now its getting suck on for some reason ?

Any idea why this could be ?

Also does the buzzer in this year of motor warn of overheating only with a solid buzz or also a fuel restriction ?


Thanks
