One of the engine alarms suddenly started buzzing continuously when idling after a long run. The engine oil levels and oil pressure seems ok. This is on a 610 hp MAN diesel on my Bayliner
Next day when starting up the same thing happened, continuous buzzing , but pressure and temperature matches the other engine. Since we were halfway between Shearwater and Prince Rupert I disabled the alarm and continued on with a close eye on temps etc all the way.
So what is causing this, I suspect a faulty sender but not sure where sender is located or how to test it out. Are replacement senders readily available or do I need a special one?
Any advise will be appreciated
