Hi All

Appreciate if someone could help me in this matter. Yesterday i ran outboard at garage on a large tank in order to not let outboard sit for a long time in winter and after 4 minutes a self diagnostic alert went on( see video further up attached ). However after about a minute alarm stopped. Switched engine off and after a while turned key on with no alarms and started engine again and alarm didnt went on. After a bit of research i found that it could be a possibility that it is an O2 sensor issue. Could some one please confirm? If so could it be possible that sensor picked issue because i had ran OB without the cowl? Does my assuming make sense?
Also as issue did not appear again ( until now) what could have caused self diagnostic to trigger? Could please someone help with issue and explain how it works.
 
Presumably the number of flashes could be relevant if you have a service manual. Looks like a sequence of 3 6 to me so I’d google 36 or 63 and see if that suggests anything. Having the cowl off won’t make any difference. Most probable thing in my experience is overheating due to insufficient water flow.

From memory that is the O2 sensor code
The sensor could be duff or a bad connection or there could be a sensor poblem
Have you tried to clear the code?
Turn the ignition on and pull the kill switch button out three times
This sometimes clears codes like the 'oil change' one
Changed the oil on these motors more than once and the oil warning still persists
Low battery voltage can cause alarms too
Even if the battery shows 12 or 12.5 volts sometimes
The sensor is in the exhaust system
Careful with these engines pulling sensor connections off whilst the ignition is on by the way
This can muddle the computers brain!
