Case Study: EDC Control Panel Malfunction on Volvo Penta KAMD300
A boat owner with a Volvo Penta KAMD300 engine notices engine misfires and intermittent loss of power. When attempting to start, the EDC CP control panel screen displays a fault code 1.4, with no other specific indication.
Without a diagnostic tool, several potential causes must be considered:
🔹 A faulty sensor
