[C320-list] Replace engine alarm.....and a new site to check out

[Wayne Strickland]

John,
 
Glad you got your problem fixed, even though you learned more than you needed to know about your boat in the process.  
 
I know we like our C320 boats a lot, but we need to love people, not things.  Ghandi-said that you are not truly free until you are free of things.......but, I don't think he was talking about a C320....he might have changed his saying.  
 
I can relate to Mark Twain's quote much better.
 
FYI: You may be interested in trying this new site for some interesting information.  It's kind of like a Facebook for boating.  Try it and see....  www.sailangle.com  
 
I'm always happy when sailing,

I had exactly the same symptom this weekend on my Yanmar 3YM30 and immediately dug into the control panel to find the culprit. (My circuit diagram showed a 3 amp fuse in the panel that would have stopped the light and the alarm which was my symptom). After an hour I determined it was just a loose connector on the sender at the engine that a gentle squeeze with pliers fixed. Lesson to self: check the easy things first.

On the plus side, I found that for the larger pedestal on my MKII, the control panel gives great access to all the workings inside the pedestal. I love serendipity!


Happy Sailing!
