0327803 EVINRUDE PLATE ASSY. 150, 175, 200

Note: Some diagnostic codes can only be detected when the SCR relay is not active. These codes will be detected after the keyswitch has been turned to the OFF position and before the ECM main relay removes electrical power from the ECM. These diagnostic codes will be logged the next time that the keyswitch is turned to the ON position.

Troubleshooting Test Steps Values Results
1. Inspect Electrical Connectors and Wiring
A. Check the fuses.
B. Thoroughly inspect the P2/J2 ECM connectors and thoroughly inspect the connector for the SCR relay. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Electrical Connectors - Inspect" for details.
C. Perform a 30 N (6.7 lb) pull test on each of the wires that are associated with the SCR relay.
Damaged wire or connector
Result: A damaged wire or damaged connector was not found. The fuses are OK.
Proceed to Test Step 2.
Result: A damaged wire or damaged connector was found. A fuse is blown.
Repair: Repair the damaged wire or the damaged connector. Replace any blown fuses.
Use the electronic service tool to clear all logged diagnostic codes. Verify that the repair eliminates the fault.
2. Check for Active or Recently Logged Diagnostic Codes
A. Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
B. Connect the electronic service tool to the diagnostic connector.
C. Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
D. Monitor the electronic service tool for active diagnostic codes and/or logged diagnostic codes.
Note: Some diagnostic codes can only be detected when the SCR relay is not active. These codes will be detected after the keyswitch has been turned to the OFF position and before the ECM main relay removes electrical power from the ECM. These diagnostic codes will be logged the next time that the keyswitch is turned to the ON position.
Diagnostic Trouble Codes
Result: A 5965-5 diagnostic code is active (short circuit to battery).
The fault is in the wiring between the SCR relay and the ECM.
Repair: Replace the faulty wiring. Use the electronic service tool to clear all logged diagnostic codes and verify that the repair eliminates the fault.
Result: A 5965-5 diagnostic code is recently logged (open circuit).
Proceed to Test Step 3.
Result: A 5965-6 diagnostic code is active (high current).
Repair: Check that the correct specification of relay is installed. If necessary, install a replacement relay.
Result: A 5965-6 diagnostic code is recently logged (short circuit to ground).
Proceed to Test Step 6.
Result: A 5965-7 diagnostic code is active.
Proceed to Test Step 7.
Result: A 5965-14 diagnostic code is recently logged.
Proceed to Test Step 9.
3. Check the Power Supply from the ECM Main Relay
A. Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
B. Disconnect the SCR relay.
C. Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
D. Use a multimeter to measure the voltage between terminal 85 on the harness connector for the SCR relay and a suitable ground.
E. Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
10 V to 14 V
Result: The measured voltage is not within the expected range.
Proceed to Test Step 4.
Result: The measured voltage is within the expected range.
Proceed to Test Step 5.
4. Check the Wiring Between the Relay and the ECM
A. Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
B. Disconnect the SCR relay. Disconnect the P2 connector.
C. Use a multimeter to measure the voltage between terminal 86 on the harness connector for the relay and P2:20.
Less than 5 Ohms
Result: The measured resistance is greater than 5 Ohms.
The fault is in the wiring between the SCR relay and the P2 ECM connector.
Repair: Replace the faulty wiring.
Use the electronic service tool to clear all logged diagnostic codes and verify that the repair eliminates the fault.
Result: The measured resistance is less than 5 Ohms.
Contact the Dealer Solution Network (DSN).
5. Check the Wiring Between the SCR Relay and the ECM Main Relay
A. Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
B. Disconnect the SCR relay and the ECM main relay.
C. Use a multimeter to measure the resistance between terminal 85 on the harness connector for the SCR main relay and terminal 87 on the harness connector for the ECM main relay.
Less than 5 Ohms
Result: The measured resistance is greater than 5 Ohms.
Repair: Check the fuse.
If the fuse is OK, the fault is in the wiring between the SCR relay and the ECM main relay.
Replace the faulty wiring.
Use the electronic service tool to clear all logged diagnostic codes and verify that the repair eliminates the fault.
Result: The measured resistance is less than 5 Ohms.
Repair: Test the circuit for the ECM main relay. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Relay - Test (ECM Main Relay)".
6. Check the SCR Relay Wiring for a Short to Ground
A. Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
B. Disconnect the SCR relay. Disconnect the P2 ECM connector.
C. Use a multimeter to measure the resistance between the following points:
Terminal 85 on the harness connector for the SCR relay and a suitable ground
