Loud beeping noise when you turn key

[Marvin willis]

Is there a way to make that loud annoying noise to go away when you first turn the key? Omg that is horrible.

I put tape over the speaker inside the dash on mine. It muted the harsh shrillness of the beeping.

Thanks I’ll look into it. I don’t understand why it’s so loud. That’s ridiculous

Yep to that ^^ I did the same, a few layers of tape.
Or you can look into this mod:

@Mainah did develop his own electronic method of eliminating this annoyingly long beep!

I just cut the wire! Couldn’t take it anymore.

That'll work! But, as I'm sure you are aware, that also eliminates any engine alarms like overheating which isn't optimal.

I hate it, and love it.
I have a 5 year old and a 3 year old... without it the boat would have beached itself after my kid was thrown from the boat.

One option is to replace the current buzzer with this one:

It has a cover that you can turn and it adjusts the volume of the buzzer. It's a little expensive for a buzzer, but will do the job.

@Augieol65 When you cut the wire does it make any other warnings appear? I've been waiting 3 months for a warranty replacement connext screen but we've still been using the boat as you can see the screen, it's only the touch part doesn't work. The engine maintenance warning started beeping yesterday and it's super annoying and I can't clear it. If I can just stop the beeping it would be fine. Although I wonder if it still is showing the engine maintenance warning, would it be blocking more important warnings like overheat?
