Mercruiser 4.5 Fault Code
Hello,
New to the forum! I have a 2017 Searay SPX 210 with the Mercruiser 4.5 (200HP). It has been a horrible boating season thus far. Early June, service light came on. Took out of the water later that month and dealer said 1 of the trim senders assemblies went bad (3 wire/1 puck version). Got it back from the dealer, launched it, and not even 5 minutes later, light was back on.
This time, I decided to purchase the Mercury Vessel View Mobile, instead of the $100 per time computer scan from the dealer. Code is reading as follows:
851-11: O2 sensor Port S2
Does anyone know if this is the pre or post CAT sensor or should I just do trial and error and replace one to see if it corrects? Is it possible it's not even one of these sensors at all?

851 is post cat and the 11 means lean condition. No offense but not that much info to be had for production catalyst marine engines on the forums. I work on these and been thru many training programs from the OEMs.

Thank you for the info! I ordered the part and will swap it out when it comes. Hopefully this is it and not something deeper in-bedded.

unfortunately right now I’m in the process of a warranty transfer so until it’s under my name, they won’t touch it. I could wait as it’s a non critical, but for $100 and piece of mind, if it’s just the sensor, i can handle that.
