Assuming this is a 4 stroke engine? If so then that's how it works oil pressure buzzer sounds until engine starts & builds oil pressure then the buzzer stops

Welcome to the forum.

RIBnet doesn’t use Elon’s 140 character count on messages. Give as much detail as possible, upload pictures then settle back for the responses.

Oh yes, that will be the sensor, very common on that engine

Really though, you will need to at least say what engine it is. An alarm can be from a list of things and the quickest fix is to take it to your local dealership that services what ever brand of engine you have.

Sounds like the buzzer test on startup, normal. If you want to stop it, disconnect the buzzer
