My water temperature alert went off when the engines weren’t even in the water or running? It has been extremely hot here (90+ for several days) so is that what is causing the alarm? Is the water temperature alert for the temperature of the water it is in or something inside the motor? I read the manual and it says water separator alert or overheat alert but not the alert that came up on my screen. The boat is new to me so trying to learn more. Thank you.

What 99yam was trying to tell you all to nicely is that troubleshooting is model/year specific. If you don’t provide model/year, you wont get accurate troubleshooting advice. If you’re not sure of model, you’ll find the motor ID plate on port side bracket.Originally posted by 99yam40 View PostYamaha started putting out 300s in 2004 I think and were 2 strokes. so you may need to get a little deeper in your out put of infoJason

OK, "a picture is worth a thousand words".
That's not a Yamaha alarm,
its got nothing to do with the engine
which would be reported as "engine temperature"
that's a Garmin alarm -
referring to the temperature measured by the sonar transducer.
Go into your Garmin menu and disable the "water temperature" alarm
