Hey guys, I'm going through my Seloc manual and growing kind of stumped with the oiling system on my '99 P150TRLX
I keep getting the low oil alarm after a few hours of run time -- the manual switch at the back of outboard works, but I can't seem to get it to pump automatically.
Both float switches (in the main tank and in the reserve tank) are testing OK. I know the trim sender is busted at the moment, but my understanding is that post '96 the trim sender doesn't amount to anything as far as the automatic oiler is concerned.
Does the motor need to actually be running in order for me to properly test for voltage at the pump as per float switches? Is there a way to bypass that?
This motor was rebuilt last year and I'm wondering if maybe the tech that did it missed some wires somewhere when it was done.
Any insight would be helpful. Thanks!!
