Warning Lights
I Have A 1999 35 Lightning With Twin Hp500 And 250 B&m Blowers. Both Engines Were Recently Done And Recently I Noticed The Two Domed Shaped Warning Lights On Both Side Of Speedo With Occaionally Come On With A Faint Alarm. All Gauges And System Working Properly But Didn't Understand What They Are Telling Me May Be Wrong. Its Not The Same Ear Piercing Sound When Engine Stalls But A Faint Sound. What Are These Two Lights Responsibilty. Thanks Speed

had that same prob with a new 99 42 trip 525sc boat lights would flicker and faint alarm when running around 3800 rpm and above never did figure it out .Preston the fountain mecanic at loto rode in the boat under the dash and did something but dont know what to fix it . Either disconnected something or???? but never had probs for 10 years.

Check your Drive fluid Bottles .. they drop a bit when under way and may set a alarm also the lights are set to go of together regardless of What motor sets the alarm also they are switched to ground so if you have a faint alarm check the grounds on the transom behind the motors or the dash grounds.

Warning lights
I did check all fluids and seemed to be okay. Did think about the ground thing but wasn't sure where to look so thanks on that and under the dash I'll have to look if you find out what it was I would appreciate it. Thanks again guys.

weak sounding alarms are usually a sign of a bad connection.

Try Gail right at Fountain, I got the latches from her a little while back, and I'm sure she can round up the bolts for you as well.
Last I knew Bob was no longer at East Coast Flightcraft, but he's still the Fountain version of McGuiver!
