Yes you should be able to ground the oil sender switch to confirm horn operation. If any alarm light is on, the same power to the lamp should be going to the horn. You could ground the water temp to check that.Just to confirm, am I correct in thinking that the horn should sound if I ground the wire at the oil pressure sender to teh block? That would be easy enough to do with the key on but engine not started, to see if the horn would come on by bypassing that sender.
Yea, my panel is actually inside the boat. I also need the buzzer. Lucky PO did not kill the engine with no buzzer. As I say I fitted an after market buzzer but had to install diodes- required quite a bit of wiring. In the end I should probably just bought the yanmar buzzer with built in diodes.The way my panel is installed, it is almost impossible to see the warning lights, except down on all fours in the cockpit. That's why the horn is very significant for me. In any case, i can get down on all fours for the checking聽
Thanks again
