Possible Source of Noise Isolation
Other electronic devices
The boat’s engine
Turn off any nearby electronic devices to
see if the problem goes away, then turn
them on one at a time to see if the noise
re-appears.
To determine whether the boat’s engine is
the source of the noise, increase the
RPMs while the boat is in neutral and
stationary to see if the noise increases
proportionately; if noise appears when
you rev the engine, the problem could be
the spark plugs, alternator, or tachometer
wiring. Replace the spark plugs with
resistor plugs, install an alternator filter,
or route the control head power cable
away from the engine wiring.
