    BF20 overheating

    Thanks. To clarify it was the time before when it squealed. The test run you’ve referenced was after I removed and reinstalled the impeller. I’m hopeful it’s all working properly since nothing overheated but the real test will be with the gears engaged and then on the water.

    BF20 overheating

    No limp mode as I don’t recall it ever being left running for more than a few seconds once the buzzer rings. By sensor do you mean thermostat? Thanks as always.

    BF20 overheating

    Yeah thanks, I did that. I’m concerned that the motor never got hot enough to open the thermostat.

    BF20 overheating

    Fresh water. It is post 2002, bought used from the original owner who kept it in excellent condition. Motor runs fine. Everything does except the overheating. I think it’s a 2007. The impeller was brand new last spring and only used once - overheated. Sat all summer this year and the test...

    BF20D water pump problem

    I have a new impeller arriving on Thursday but will value guidance on how to proceed in light of this sequence. The old one was two years old but I’d only run the boat for five hours over the past two seasons, on four outings. The other day, I started the engine for the first time this spring...

    2007 Honda BF 20 tilt trim switch?

    JGMO saved 180 bucks and counting and Alan, yes, I had power to the box when I tested it. However, I was looking for voltage and amps but after looking at the diagram more carefully, I see that it’s simply continuity that I need to check. And, that test checks out so the box is fine. I can...

    2007 Honda BF 20 tilt trim switch?

    The up/down switch is on the throttle lever by the instrument panel. I’m getting zero response from it and the easy problems like the fuse and and battery charge all check out fine. The connections on the switch look corroded and while the connections seem solid, I thought about buying a new...
