Yamaha G29/drive oil light

walte1fr · 07-01-2018, 04:57 PM

Our cart battery was dead. When I charged it the oil light was on. Nautically I check the oil level and it shows full. Why is this light on all the time instead of only when the key is on? Is there an adjustment to it?
Does anyone know where to get the service manual?

Nope, oil level sensor works with key off. Problem is sensor or it's circuit.

If I move the cart the light will go out. It’s just overly sensitive.

There was a service bulletin about a sharp edge inside the engine wearing through the wiree to the sensor. But, I have never seen one actually do it.

Thanks. Do you know where I can get ahold of a service manual?

Nope. All Yamaha digital manuals now have the dealer number watermarked all over every page. Any dealer digital copy would be instantly identifiable as to it's source, and would get the dealer in big trouble. So likely won't find one.

CG Tech you appear to be the man on the efi carts.

My 2016 g29 check engine light stays constantly ON after driving for 10-15 seconds. I have yet to see any flashing codes. I checked and replaced the engine oil (1 qt). Checked the Oil Switch. Disconnected oil switch. Problem still persists.
