Hi
Need some help. I've got a 1993 70HP Evinrude that sounds an alarm running below 2000 RPMS. If I run the boat at 20 plus MPH the alarm doesn't sound. Is the beeping noise the overheat alarm? Water is flowing strong through the peep hole. The water is not hot coming out of the peep hole nor the lower unit. I can leave my hand there for as long as I want. Stream is constant. Could this be a thermostat issue? Thanks Ken

The overheat alarm would be a continuous beep, the intermittant beep is for the vro system

Kingbee13 thanks for the info. It is a continuous beep. Is it weird for the motor not to beep when I'm running it past 20MPH?

Sorry I was referring to the title of half second beeps ,overheat is continuous sounding no beeps, and if it is overheating it should engage S.L.O.W. mode (limits engine RPMs). I suppose its possible its a faulty warning horn or wiring issue, but someone else may be of more help.
