Yamaha Outboard Oil Tank Sensor

Spending time on the water in your small boat be it on a freshwater lake or through tidewater marshes that experience an influx of saltwater at high tide starts with making sure your small boat is well prepared and your outboard motor is well maintained. I have a 2001 yamaha 225 outboard motor and the oil tank on the side of the engine will not fill automatically like it should when the oil level in that tank drops i was told by the local yamaha dealer that it was the cdi unit i replaced it and its but the problem still exist. Troubleshooting the alarm system includes making sure the horn associated with the alarm works making sure the warning light comes on and the horn sounds when the oil level drops below acceptable levels and ensuring the warning sounds if the engine overheats.
