Yamaha warning lights

CSR · 14 September 2011, 23:04

I have a Yamaha ME420sti and I was wondering if anyone had a diagram of the warning lights on the control panel. The panel that I have has no manufacturers name on it and for all I know might not even be a Yamaha panel. If its any help I have a Redbay.
Thanks

CSR,

A photo might help others identify if the panel was supplied with all the Yam ME engines?

Is there nothing in the collection of manuals that Redbay handover with the boat (all in a rather nice, "Redbay bag")?

Hello fellow 7.4
Hope to first launch mine tomorrow - although weather might change that.
Here is photo of my panel, which actually comes with yamaha me422.
Is that the same as yours?

Is yours like this one?

Portnahaven · 15 September 2011, 10:44

Hi fellow Redbayer
Hoping to get mine completed and readt for launch tomorrow - but weather might change that.
Here is a photo of my panel, which comes with yamaha install.
Is that the same as yours?

CSR - Last time I was on your boat I didn't see anything that looked unusual, so I'm guessing you have the unmarked panel as per the picture above. Unfortunately I have deleted the video I took, so can't confirm this.

If you want to know what information is lit up under the black panel, I can probably tell you. However, I suspect this is not what you want to know-you want info on the wiring dont you?

Hi guys. Thanks for all your replies. Sorry im just getting back to you now but ive been away all week. I have attached a picture of the panel. I was just looking for a list of what the lights are Brian. Not too bothered about the wiring just what they mean. I didnt get anything with the boat as I bought it second hand.
Cheers

High CSR,

FYI if you ever need any spare dials or panels (as shown in your photo) I have all of them in stock (brand new) and very cheap.

Is your boat in kip? Get intouch And I think I can help, live at kip

I have the same panel and don't know either.

I am guessing starting from the top anti-clockwise:

Glowplugs
Battery charge
Oil pressure?
Fuel filter drain
Seawater?
Water pressure?
Overheat
Neutral

Can someone please correct this?

There is nothing in the manual either?
You would have thought Yamaha would publish something wouldnt you?
Even to download a manual costs money, from 3rd party sources-Yamaha dont even publish their own manuals on-line. A practice I find very common with some Japanese companies these days.

CSR · 21 September 2011, 10:26

Hi Brian. Yeah you'd think so wouldn't you? I'm even getting to the stage where I'd be quite happy to buy one from a 3rd party. That's where my next problem starts! For the past 9 months I can't find anywhere I can download it from. Any ideas would be appreciated?

Kubcat is about right. There's not much more to know about that panel. If something is up it'll tell you

My guess, with reasoning:

I'll second the glowplugs, battery, temp & Neutral selected.

As for the bottom four:
I guess the two almost identical ones bottom right are pressure & level, (one with the arrows being pressure) The "oil drop with arrows" second up on the left I guess is also pressure, but what?

Taking a slight tangent, the "oil drop with arrows" could be fuel pressure, meaning the "wavy" ones on the right could be oil - makes sense to know if it's both at pressure & enough of it? The fact the two wavys are clustered combined with Kubcat's guess at fuel filter drain would put the two fuel ones together bottom left, oil bottom right, pressure on the same row. It kind of makes sense to my brain.

Coolant (or lack thereof) would show up on the temp light.

Best_guesses'r'us!

There's no fuel pressure. One is over heat and one is low water pressure. If you run it up on muffs or pick up a bag it comes on and the alarm sounds. More or less what kubcat said

What would make my Water Pressure light flash intermittently?
