Need help on Seadoo sportster 4 tec oil warming alarm

[Brianrph99]

It starts and idles fine, once i increase the throttle the Oil warning alarm comes on. I shut down and won't start again until after 5 minutes and runs fine after that. It does that 3 times already. I checked the oil level and at correct level. Oil change was last year. Any idea? Thanks in advance.

Could be the oil pressure sensor. If you have a friend that can plug into the computer and read the code may give you a good idea.

Where is the oil pressure sensor located and how do I test to know for sure? Thanks

If looking at engine oil pressure sensor is located on opposite side of engine from starter. Part number is 420856532. Not sure how to test.

How many sensors are there?

I had the same issue… long beep and check oil light but no failure code. Then I changed the oil senor next to the oil filter and the problem was solved. There is a second oil sensor direction to the boat nose. I didn’t change this, so my problem was definitely the sensor in the back. Later I could read the number and I saw it was the old sensor which is known for having this problems. If you have a fitting pipe wrench it’s a 10 minutes job.
