Since you have a EPIC wakeboard boat do you have 2 fuel tanks or just 1..

I take it you have one fuel gauge correct ? If so the fuel "level 2 CKT hi fault" means nothing.

Paddle wheel mounted on the bottom of the transom it does double duty = speed readings as its paddles thru the water and has a temp sensor built in it.

I will ask the mechanic to look tomorrow. Bup I tried to send you a private message, is there a way I can contact you?

You have a mechanic on this and he does not know what these codes means ? Is this what I am thinking ?

We have a mechanic and he is really smart, he just hasn't seen those errors and the engine is not common around here. since they replaced many things we are trying to figure out why we are still having issues.
