I launched my 2021 Saturn fb385 inflatable boat with my 2021 Suzuki df20aes3 on 4/20 for the time ever and had an awesome time breaking in the motor. Now because of you, I am going to get the Suzuki diagnostic kit to check how I did and to make sure everything is good according to break in instructions. Thanks for all you do, I appreciate it and you! Tight lines!
great video didnt know this existed...i will try fix my friend's engine i just ordered a kit like this....i have the same type of solution for my bmw car and it works like a charm.thank you
This is really cool. I can’t help but believe that a design that is capable of 20hp but set up to only provide 9.9 ought to last a long time. I’m gonna get one.
U think that will work on a johnson but uts actually a suzuki df140? 2003....i have one but i cant get it to connect. Just tried it today for the first time
Thank you for giving us updates on our 9.9 suskuki engine! I bought the computer scanner! But in your vidio it says engine must be running !! Mine won't start? Any ideas? I did not see what the red light flashes were when he reset the red lanyard switch? Any help how to get it started?
Very Nice.. So I can ask an Outboard technician to use this software to check a Used Outboard I want to buy? How many Hours on it, Failure events, etc...?
I noticed the contacts they use are marked OBD2. Is it possible to connect an ordinary cheap OBD2 reader or OBD2 gauge as you can in a car and see live data from the engine? NEMA2000 kits to your GPS display or Suzukis multi function gauges are very expensive.
I bought a 2019 15hp this year for my 14ft tin and it's hits rev limiter before 3/4 throttle. I plan to go up to an 11 pitch prop to hopefully correct this. My buddy was passing me with his old 9.9 and that kinda pissed me off. So I am getting the prop and probably the 20hp ECM soon. Seems weird that the engine overheated just by cranking it over. Doesn't the water impeller still pump while the engine is cranking? I think I might get this diag kit too cause my 15 doesn't idle as nice as yours that's for sure. Mine shakes like crazy at idle but purrs as soon as I get off idle. Thanks for the vids on these Motors.
Does overheat easy with no water running.. it had been running for 30 minutes already hot and doesnt pee water while cranking not enough speed .. if the engine was cold start would have been fine. What prop pitch you have now?
CDNWizard did you try triming the motor different positions? a hydrofoil will help you take off faster.. it wont leap wasting power upwards... it will shoot straight..
@@laingej yeah I've tried all different trim positions. I hope that I'm heading in the right direction. The boat is honestly so light I can pick it up and portage with it by myself very easily. It's is rated for a 15 hp max. I've had two buddies in the boat with me and a bunch of gear and that was the only time I could open it up without hitting the limiter. I figure a prop is only around $100 Canadian so I will try that. I'm also planning on adding a little weight to the boat with a casting deck and storage up front. I solo fish mostly and my two young ones come out every so often.
Did you have any issues downloading and installing the software? I just managed to install the drivers and program after messing with it for a couple of hours. But the program won't start with or without the USB cable plugged in. Does it have to be initially connected to the motor with it running for the computer to recognize and initialize the program or am I doing something wrong?
I got a slightly newer version that just has a box with two cables coming out of it, one the USB you hook up to computer and the other with the 4-pin connector you hook up to outboard port (which actually only has 3 out of the 4 pins, although the seller says that's how it's supposed to be)..
Did you change the usb port settings? You have to go in our computer and change the usb port to COM1 for it to work. Mine came with instructions and after installing all thats the one step you gotta do. Connect the adapter to usb the go to setting look for videos here changing usb port to com1
@@laingej Yes I did. I was able to get it working shortly after. Thanks for your response. I found out mine only had 30hrs, despite being a 2014 model, so I'm pretty happy with it!! I also found no faults or error codes, other than 1 instance of a low oil pressure fault. Just need to get ready for and do the timing belt replacement and I should be good to go!!
Love your channel. Subscribed. Would you happen to know if the software kit that you got would work on a Suzuki DF30? I cant figure that out from the ebay add.
What value does this diagnostic software have if it will only work with the engine running? If my engine won’t start this won’t help me to find out why.Right?
You can .. you need a 12v battery and power the Positive white wire coming out of the rectifier .. it disconnects and ground the engine block. Then it powers the ecu and you can connect the diagnostic program..i will make a video
@@laingej I found it, it's part of the video where you had the fuel stabilizer problems, thanks so much for replying :) I have a DF20 pullstart. I'm trying to find the best location for the 12v power for the ECM
Did you ever do The fuel comparison to see if the 9.9 ECU delivered the same fuel as the 20 ECU when running it with the 20 hp flame arrester? I saw you did it up to 2500 rmp in nuetral and the results were the same. Did you ever test this on the water in gear?
The motor was already hot running before.. then the fuel line came disconnected without me knowing..i kept cranking and cranking it.. spinning dry wasnt picking up water. Was just enough to store a code but wasnt major overheating
@@laingej my suzuki 6hp cranks up by pulling a rope, but it pees every time you pull. Also,i remember your engine didn't connect to ECU when the engine was off , although it was connected to a battery.
@@boatsandoutboards9070 i see. mine needs more speed to pickup water doesnt pee cranking nor pulling the cord.. takes a good second after start to see it peeing..The battery is just for the starter motor it doesnt power the ecu.
Does your diagnostic give you any information regarding AWG cable requirements for moving the battery 17 feet away from the motor ? It looks like 8 AWG cable coming out of my motor itself, but I'm not even sure on that. Then I would want a large enough cable to defeat any resistance on the 17 foot electrical run. Mine is the 2020 15 with electris start and power tilt. And your vids are great !
No theres no info on that .. you can calculate it yourself there a formula by lenght and amps so you retain the needed amperage yes you gotta go a little bit thicker.. but this little motors will cracks fine with 110 cca even thou recomended is 325 cca
Hola amigo tengo el kit para hacer el proceso de diagnóstico... E en esta ocasión quiero activar y calibrar dos motores fuera de borda 250 pH, ¿cuál sería el debido proceso?.
I know. But since it doesnt have ignition switch..the ecm is dead but there is a way.. you can power the ecu with a 12v battery . Pin 13 power and pin 14 ground. It works i tried

I have a 2017 Suzuki 9.9 same motor though it looks like. I just put the 20hp ECU on mine looking forward to taking it for a test run today.
Nice ! Did u take the restrictor plate out? Gona be fun!
@@laingej Sure did put the one in for the 20hp.
TY for the info! Much appreciated!
U think that will work on a johnson but uts actually a suzuki df140? 2003....i have one but i cant get it to connect. Just tried it today for the first time
I noticed your software card has Honda, Yamaha and Mercury on it. Does this tool work for other manufacturers besides Suzuki?

Some of the actuation functions require that the engine not be running. How do you get power to the ecm if the motor is not running?
Very Nice.. So I can ask an Outboard technician to use this software to check a Used Outboard I want to buy? How many Hours on it, Failure events, etc...?
Hola me puedes ayudar? Porqué se calienta mucho la junta de culata de mi motor suzuki 15cv si refrigera bien?
Thank You Sir, Your video help me alot to make my decisions either to buy 9.9hp or 20hp Suzi. - 👍 From Malaysia.
Hey you welcome!
You have this dianostic
I noticed the contacts they use are marked OBD2. Is it possible to connect an ordinary cheap OBD2 reader or OBD2 gauge as you can in a car and see live data from the engine? NEMA2000 kits to your GPS display or Suzukis multi function gauges are very expensive.
How can I connect to my 9.9 manual starter model? There is a problem with electric connection, I need help. I need to power the ecu, how can I?

keep it up buddy good info.i got the same exact motor
is there a way to clear historycal codes?
Hey man good video. Where do you purchase that ECM upgrade? I've the DF15A (2020) and could use the additional horsepower.
Does this work with Honda, Yamaha or Mercury?
Please let us know the Part # nd Where you obtained the Valve Adjustment dual Socket Wrench? Great Videos! Thanks, Paul
Hi thanks ordered my does not have it yet. Can you tel me does the 20hp pullstart have 12v dc output for use when running?
Thanks
Renier
No it doesnt have a charging system( rectifier)
where did you get the software?

@@CUBICHI1985 wow just 30hrs! Thats awesome! They used it very very little .. or they put a new ecu.. ?? who knows maybe was just a kicker outboard
@@laingej I know right?! They used in their vacation home down mex, so likely just used very little. Either way I'm pretty happy with the outcome 😁
Could you use this to flash the 20hp onto the 9.9ecu?
No, i wish! Had to buy the 20hp ecu

Interesting to see it overheats when you have no fuel at all. (Hose disconnected)
