THe throttle/remote box is too difficult to get open for this inspection..in my opinion....so, is there a way to get an ordinary alarm/horn from radio shack, and bypass the shifter box(throttle/remote)?...We were thinking of having a manual alarm system check..by a typical switch, and the connecting that system(switch and extenal horn/alarm)to the wire coming from the thermocouple(or whatever one it is)...It would basically be the "hot" wire form engine, connected to pos term on switch, with the horn connected to each respective terminal, and then grounding it...what im curious is if that system would 1) work, being that the original system had a alrm check when the key is turned, then it had the original overheat alarm both connected throught the key switch in the shifter box...2) Would that system be able to complete the circuit, allowing for a manual check by flipping the switch on....then by flipping the switch off...it would activate the engine alarm..therby shutting the manual alarm off....? THanks for all of your help....
