  • New Tachometer Issues

    Hi All,

    I'm hoping that someone out there can help me with a problem I've got. I've recently changed the tach on my Yamaha 60FETOL. The old tach was a 6Y5-2818R -30 and the new one is a 6Y5-8350T-83-00. I have changed the tilt/trim wiring to the 2 wire set up and have installed the adapter cable.

    My problems are:

    1. The tach indicates only half the RPM that the engine is running at.
    2. With everything connected and the oil tank full I have a flashing oil light and a permanent alarm.

    However, when the oil tank is only a third full I get no flashing indicator and no alarm. I have purchased a new oil level indicator and it has made no difference.

    I have tried the DIP switches in every combination and nothing changes regarding the alarms

    Any ideas?

    Which end of the trim/oil harness is the adapter cable connected to?

    Also, what is the complete ID for the motor?
