Twin engine warning buzzers
If both motors are running, then 1 motor dies, shouldn't the alarm go off do to no oil pressure?
All I get is the little warning light in the Gaffrig oil pressure gauge lite up, no buzzer. Doesn't seem right.
The buzzer does sound twice when I 1st turn the keys, I'm assuming the self test sounding.

Yes, once 1 of the motors died while idling thru the marina and I didn't know it until I went to get on plane.

Re: Twin engine warning buzzers
yes it should buzz. Anyway to kill the other motor to see if buzzer works on that one?
Also, when you turn the key without engaging starter, I have a steady buzzer alarm that will sound after 5 seconds. Mine does not buzz twice and stops. It will buzz till I turn key off.

Mine does the same. Turn on the key and it will Buzz until the battery dies, but I only get the a buzz on one key, not the other?? Is that correct??

Re: Twin engine warning buzzers
Well, not sure what is going on with mine, but this weekend I did some troubleshooting.
With both motors running, I can ground out any of the senders for the each of the drive bottles or the oil press senders separately and the alarm will sound. BUT, once again while I was idleing thru a no wake zone, one of the motors died and I did not notice it for a bit. No alarm. What gives? Only way my alarms will sound is when the motors are running.
