I have Honda 90s  and our starboard engine was overheating and shutting down (intermittantly due to not peeing,  but also did it when peeing fine)  The indicator at the key was blinking red,  but only went solid when it shut itself down when it was cranked up on plane.   We were thinking thermostat,  took it to Posner  and yes, it was running hot, they replaced the thermostat- problem solved we thought.  Well we took it out last weekend  and my indicator is still blinking red- the engine is peeing fine  and  running fine/not shuttiing down etc.   I am planning to take it back out of the water and back to Posner,  but thought I might pick a few brains here in case there was a simple fix.  Thanks

It's been a while since working on a Honda. Can't remember what that would be and do not have my cheat book handy, sorry. It's  got to be simple though.

overheat sensor might be bad try unpluging it and see if it starts if it does run it and the plug it back in see if theres a diffrents make sure that the motor water is flowing and theres oil cuz thats all it can be no oil or water flow or the secsor is bad
