Ignition buzzer piezzo
 
Hi,
I have not posted until now because I have not had any issues.
I'm original owner of an 2007 SX21 V6 Alpha one, with 285 freshwater hours.
Oil changes, fuel filter, lower drive oil, plugs-wires-cap-rotor, ignition switch, & lots of prop rebuilds.
This season when I turned the key, I didn't hear the buzzer. I have a replacement, but can't find the factory location for the broken one. I pulled the switch cluster and it's not behind it. Anyone know where I should look, so that I don't waste more time loosening weak plastic trim with cracked edges/corners?
Thanks,
Jay

After reading a post discussing a sensor located in the drive lube reservoir, could my buzzer have gone silent because I recently topped off the fluid?

Mine is behind throttle lever/gear shifter.

Does it activate itself in test mode each time the key is turned, or only as a warning from a sensor?
Thanks,
Jay

Every time the key is the run position and engine is dead.

The buzzer is behind the throttle. Mine went bad on a 99 this year. It should buzz when the motor is off with key in run position. It also should buzz on low drive oil and over temp when the engine is running. On normal operation the buzz stops when engine is started. There is a chart that tells you the buzzing operation for all motors/out drives. Google it and you should be able to find it.

I looked behind throttle this past weekend, and did not see it. Any more ideas, or which wires/circuit does it work with. (I already found the key left in accessory position by someone due to lack of alert)
Thanks,

Not really sure where Sea Fox Mariah installed them.
Would likely be worth crawling under the dash with a flashlight trying to locate it. It's slightly smaller than a silver dollar, and looks similar to this:

The alarm circuit only has 3 sensors, drive oil level, engine temperature, and oil pressure. These sensors are marked by a tan wire with blue line on it. You can test the buzzer of the warning system by locating one of these sensors, and running it to a ground. This should activate the alarm.
