Hi Everyone...hoping someone here can help with what this warning symbol means. We are having this light and alarm come on after we run the motor at near/full or full throttle for about 10 mins and then throttle down. The alarm goes off and the light comes on, if we turn the ignition off the alarm stays off. Only happens doing this and not all the time, never slowing down from cruising speed. I'm assuming this is an oil level light, but can't find an exact reference in the owners manual. Oil level is correct at the top indicator mark and just changed less than 50 hours ago, very clean If anyone can shed some light on this or solutions , it;s much appreciated. Thank you!

Hi,

That is the overheat indicator. The little horizontal "wavy line" is supposed to represent water. The ball at the bottom and the short protruding "nub" at the top represent parts of a thermometer.

It sounds as if the engine may be overheating when run hard. You will definitely want to investigate that possibility.

If the water pump and thermostat haven't been serviced as required, it may be time to get that done.


The symbol above the green lamp that looks like a teardrop represents oil and the two opposing arrows on either side represents pressure.

The green lamp should be lit anytime the engine is running indicating "adequate" oil pressure.
