Preface
This manual has been prepared by Yamaha primarily for use by Yamaha dealers and their trained
mechanics when performing maintenance procedures and repairs to Yamaha equipment. It has
been written to suit the needs of persons who have the Bronze Technical Certificate of the YTA
(Yamaha Technical Academy) marine or the equivalent basic understanding of the mechanical and
electrical concepts and procedures inherent in the work, for without such knowledge attempted
repairs or service to the equipment could render it unsafe or unfit for use.
Because Yamaha has a policy of continuously improving its products, models may differ in detail
from the descriptions and illustrations given in this publication. Use only the latest edition of this
manual. Authorized Yamaha dealers are notified periodically of modifications and significant
changes in specifications and procedures, and these are incorporated in successive editions of this
manual. Also, up-to-date parts information is available on YDS (Yamaha Dealer System). Additional
information and up-to-date information on Yamaha products and services are available on YDS
(Yamaha Dealer System).
Important information
Particularly important information is distinguished in this manual by the following notations:
The Safety Alert Symbol means ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS
INVOLVED!
A WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
A NOTICE indicates special precautions that must be taken to avoid damages to the out-
board motor or other property.
TIP:
A TIP provides key information to make procedures easier or clearer.

Electronic control system
This model uses an electronic fuel injection control, ignition timing control, knock control, engine
speed control, Digital Electronic Control, electronic shift control, ETV control, and fail-safe control.
The engine ECM performs these controls based on data received from each sensor and switch.
The engine ECM is equipped with a self-diagnosis function. This function can be used to check trou-
ble codes on the YDIS.
It is also equipped with Y-COP as an anti-theft measure (optional).

Electronic fuel injection control
In electronic fuel injection control, the engine ECM determines the fuel injection timing and fuel
injection amount according to the signals from the sensors and performs the appropriate fuel injec-
tion. The fuel injection amount is controlled by the fuel injector actuation time. There are 2 types of
fuel injection timing control: synchronous fuel injection and asynchronous fuel injection. According
to the engine operating conditions during the control, the control mode switches automatically
between the start-up mode, normal operating mode, and fuel injection cutoff mode. In addition, vari-
ous compensations are made to determine the actual fuel injection timing and fuel injection amount.
Also, a fuel injector anti-sticking control has been adopted.

Asynchronous fuel injection
Asynchronous fuel injection is fuel injection that occurs using the timing determined necessary by
the engine ECM according to the signals from the sensors, not synchronized with the crankshaft
angle set by the engine ECM. At engine start-up or during acceleration, if the changes in the signals
from the TPS or air pressure sensor exceed a predetermined level, fuel injection is performed simul-
taneously for all of the cylinders.
In the fuel injection cutoff mode, the fuel injection is cut off while the engine speed control is being
performed. See “Engine speed control” (2-12).
Fuel injection amount compensation
The fuel injection control makes compensations to the fuel injection amount according to the engine
operating conditions. The compensations are determined according to the signals from the following
sensors.
Compensation Corresponding sensor
For changes in intake air pressure Air pressure sensor
For changes in intake air temperature Air temperature sensor
During warm-up Engine temperature sensor
After start-up Engine temperature sensor

During dashpot function operation Air pressure sensor, LPS, SPS, and pulser coil
For changes in air and fuel ratio Air pressure sensor, engine temperature
sensor, and pulser coil
During acceleration Air pressure sensor and TPS
For retarded ignition timing Engine temperature sensor and pulser coil
Fuel injector anti-sticking control
After the engine start switch is turned to ON and before the high-pressure fuel pump starts operat-
ing, the engine ECM sends a signal once to actuate all of the fuel injectors simultaneously to pre-
vent the fuel injector valves from sticking.

Ignition timing control
In ignition timing control, the engine ECM uses signals from the sensors to assess engine operating
conditions and determines the basic ignition timing and ignition coil energization time. The engine
ECM also applies various restrictions and compensations to determine the actual ignition timing.
The ignition timing is also controlled according to the knock control. See “Knock control” (2-11). 0

Basic ignition timing
The basic ignition timing is divided into 3 types: engine starting ignition timing, idling basic ignition
timing, and normal basic ignition timing.

Ignition timing restriction
The advancing or retarding of the ignition timing is restricted according to the engine speed, engine
temperature, and dashpot function.
Restriction Corresponding sensor Details
Engine speed restriction Pulser coil The ignition timing is restricted
between BTDC 50° (advance
angle) and ATDC 20° (retard
angle) according to the engine
speed.
Engine temperature restriction Engine temperature sensor The ignition timing is restricted
between BTDC 50° (advance
angle) and ATDC 30° (retard
angle) according to the engine
temperature.
Dashpot function restriction Pulser coil and LPS The ignition timing is restricted
(when the throttle valve is to ATDC 20° when the
closed quickly) dashpot function operates.
Ignition timing compensation
The ignition timing control makes advance or retard compensations to the ignition timing according
to the engine operating conditions. The compensations are determined according to the signals
from the following sensors.

VCT control
In VCT control, the engine ECM determines the appropriate intake valve opening timing according
to the signals from the sensors. According to the engine operating conditions, the OCVs are oper-
ated and the VCT assemblies are advanced, retarded, or maintained in the current position to con-
trol the intake valve opening timing. 0

Knock control
In knock control, the engine ECM receives the knock signal from the knock sensor which is installed
on the cylinder block between the cylinder banks. The engine ECM retards the ignition timing and
decreases the engine speed according to the amount of knocking to protect the engine from dam-
age.
If the knocking occurs frequently, the ignition timing is retarded until the knocking is no longer
detected, and the retarded ignition timing is maintained, using the learning function.
The knock control activates according to the following conditions:
Engine
