Good evening, My 2002 Mercury XR6 is sounding the overheating alarm (continuous beep) immediately after turning the key (regardless as to whether or not I crank it over). I feel this has to be a false alarm as the engine is literally at the temperature of the great outdoors (makes the sound before even being run).
Tried running it for 10 minutes to see if it would quit to no avail. Any Ideas?
Where on the outboard is the temperature sensor that controls this alarm? Perhaps this is just faulty?
Thank you a bunch for any help in advance!
