Default Mercury outboard controller alarm

One of my many projects this year on my 1978 V20 was relocating my batteries forward to offset the weight of my new 10hp kicker that I added for trolling. I completed the wiring yesterday, everything seems to work properly but now I have an constant alarm (?) Going off in the new controller that was installed a couple of months ago.

Checking the Guest switch wiring diagram, everything appears to be correct. I was pretty careful with labeling wires etc.

Any thoughts regarding a potential cause for the alarm?

Thanks as always, Duke

Is the alarm constantly sounding or is there some kind of code beeping?

It is a constant alarm - which I discovered tonight is the temperature sending unit on the engine block. Just need to find a new one online and then I can put this issue behind me.

Thanks Duke
