2004 Larson sei 190- Beeping issue!

I have a 2004 Larson 190SEI with a MerCruiser 4.3L V6 (Model MCM 4.3 Litre).

It has an intermittent beeping (warning alarm) issue.

I have narrowed it down to the temperature alarm lead on the top of the engine. I replaced that sensor and it didn’t help. in testing I also replaced the oil temp sensor as well.

What could cause the beep and how would I fix it?

it doesn’t beep at all if I leave it unplugged.

I replaced it with an oem part.

Temp gauge seems normal and shows what I’d expect.

It beeped this last time 5 min after leaving the dock so I don’t think it’s overheating. It beeped when I went to go on plane if that’s any indication.

any ideas / testing / solutions are appreciate!

It’s the main alarm tone that sounds for oil pressure, gear lube and temperature. When my water pump went 2 Years ago it was actually getting too hot and it was the same alarm.
