    Battery low alarm

    How old are your batteries? It wouldn't hurt to have them load tested. Make sure all connections are clean and if you can measure the voltage at the battery then at the FF while you start the motor, make sure you have water on. Does the FF turn off or does just the low voltage warning pop up? Is...

    omc stringer 400 ignition switch fuse getting hot. (battery Pole)

    " i am going to switch this fuse out for a heavier blade fuse" Replacing the fuse holder sounds like a good idea but be careful on installing a higher amperage fuse. The fuse rating matters, you want the fuse to blow before the wire melts.

    Warning horn

    Is there any information that you can read on the horn? Post a picture of the alarm. Do you know what the alarm is for? I'm guessing 12volts is applied to the horn when it needs to be activated.

    Warning horn

    Warning horn

    leave them disconnected start the motor and see what happens to the fuse. You don't want to connect the wires together since one side may be a ground and the other may be 12volts and you'd be shorting 12v straight to ground.
