Last Thursday the Wife and I took a day out and went to go fishing. Everything was going great. We put in and off we went. I got about 1/3 the way out across the river then I lost almost all forward power. I made it back to the ramp at idle speed. So there I sat in waste deep water looking at the motor scratching my head checking everything that I could think of. After a few more attempts I decided that the day was not going to happen as planned. Boy that was for sure! As I went up to get the truck I realized that my wallet was in one of my cargo pockets of my shorts as well as my keys in the front pocket. Being that my keys were submerged for 20 minutes or so my alarm button to get in my truck was not working. I unlocked the door with the key knowing that the alarm would start yelling as soon as I opened it. No worries, for I have the alarm "kill" switch installed. I popped the key in the ignition and turned to accessory, hit the switch and ...IT DID NOT WORK!! After a minute of getting everyone's attention it shuts off. I start the truck and back down the ramp. Not even a minute goes by and the thing goes off again. here we are trying to get the boat on the trailer with out being able to simply run it up, the whole time the alarm is going. Finally trailered we drive off, heads low and alarm screaming!. It shut off once again. As we were driving down the road trying to at least enjoy the weather as with the other people driving around us the alarm starts going off again. I felt like such a tool. I pulled off the road (as well as the car in front of us), pop the hood get the pocket knife out, grab a hand full of wires and was about to start cutting key wires to the siren when it stopped. Annoyed I hop in the truck. Wife decided to try the alarm button again. Presto all is normal once again...well except for the ringing in my ears.<br /><br />Running code 3 - Lights and Sirens
