So cool to see all those different boats. We don’t have them here in Viking county actually. 🇳🇴And I have to say it makes me happy to see the channel is doing so well. It’s awesome that you are able to send out so many videos regularly. Great job🔆👊
@@JustinLeeMarine oh I know-Lived over on the EAST side for 10 yrs.I was one of those people.Hell-I remember back in like 88-89 it got cold AF down there and everyone’s water systems got destroyed.all that PVC froze up and split.it was pretty bad. I’m planning my escape back there-just need a few things in life to play itself out and we will be back- until the I’ll bitch😆
I'm a certified Yamaha technician who's been doing this for 12 years, and i've never seen these sensors go bad. I know the old type of plastic sensors were recalled due to water ingress. What caused this sensor to fail?
They usually get clogged up with salt and sand. You can clean them but when it's under warranty they want you to change them and perform the recall if it's a first generation 425.
Hi Justin, always love everything you do. I have a question. I have twin Yamaha 425 XTO engines. I saw on one of your videos you installed some kind of automatic flush unit. What would you recommend would work best with these XTO engines? Doesn't Yamaha make an auto flush device or is it just 3rd party? If so are there any you recommend? I ran across a Yamaha part (12V Yamaha MAR-FLUSH-20-00) it looks like an old reverso unit. Is this any good? Looks like Reverso has gone through 3 revisions. I wonder if they finally got it right now?
I say to flush them the old fashioned way. Its less stuff to break later. Reverso seems to be one of the few that will flush multiple engines. Really up to you😄
I noticed that there were several “Lost Heading Sensor” errors under the Warning Manager when you pulled up the codes on the Yamaha CL7. My boat does the same thing and kicks off the Yamaha AutoPilot. Do you know what the problem might be and how to fix it? Thanks!
The only thing I have done that has fixed the heading sensor issue is updated the gauge software from Yamaha. It helped a 456 Grady that had that problem. I have also heard that the GPS antenna can cause the problem.
Yes. All the first generation Yamaha F425 engines have an ECU update. If you call the dealer with serial number you can see if it falls under the recall.
They do have a recall for the update on the ECU. Its only for the first run of serial numbers and you would have to call a dealer to check. They usually send out bulletins but nobody ever reads them. Lol
@@JustinLeeMarine Gotcha, you do side work? I'd be looking to have a 100 hour service for a pair of 425s done soon. I'm a little south of your in Port Charlotte.
@@brianlb78 I'm sorry. I do not do any work on the side. I don't have time as I can't keep up with the boats we deal with now. Thank you for the offer. I do appreciate it and thanks for watching.
Thanks for the views of those gorgeous Vikings. Wish I could afford one.
They are amazing vessels. Way out of my price range too🥲
Please help me

Thank you and you would love the Vikings. Giant diesel motors for you to work on or service. 😅
@@JustinLeeMarine yes, I think I would love that! 🦾
Nice and informative Justin! Good job.
Thank you. I appreciate that.

Thank you very much😊
Whats up Justin?-high season for you down there.all the big toys are South hiding from the ice-monster
Haha. The ice monster needs to stay up north😊
@@JustinLeeMarine Dude-it’s brutal here right now and the wind is picking up.they are talking
-5 with the windchill today--with the sun out…
@@johnm5714 if it's 50 degrees here people freak out. Haha. Don't think people would survive if it got that cold here. 😅

If I ever become wealthy I want a Viking in battleship gray with a Valhalla tender

Did you check continuity on the sensor beforehand?
Easy!
You ever get dirty ?

Hi bud ..nice video
Where could I buy the program for the computer? I got the same motor
I don't think you can buy it unless you are a Yamaha dealer. I have seen some people sell bootleg versions of it on ebay. Thanks for watching.
Hi Justin is this a recall issue with 425 engine?
Yes. All the first generation Yamaha F425 engines have an ECU update. If you call the dealer with serial number you can see if it falls under the recall.
@@JustinLeeMarine thanks will do .. great help
Hi sir
I am Yamaha technician in Kuwait
Could you help me
425 Yamaha outboard engine trim sensor issue then trim switching time outoff
You will need to plug into it with the Yamaha software to diagnose it.
So is there an actual recall for this or just something they replace when it goes bad under warranty?
They do have a recall for the update on the ECU. Its only for the first run of serial numbers and you would have to call a dealer to check. They usually send out bulletins but nobody ever reads them. Lol
