Oil level alarm

I have a 1993 mercury OB 115 HP. While cruising the river my alarm went off and remained a constant alarm. Oil level was fine and the oil alarm module only has about one hour on it since I replaced. When I got home I turned on key and I'm getting a intermittant beep. I bought another module and installed but I still get an intermittant beep. Started the engine and nothing changes. Onyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Typically a beep, beep, beep alarm is a low or no oil alarm.

A steady beep or horn is normally an overheat condition.

The oil alarm can be a bit of a tricky one to diagnose and figure out as it's hooked into the electronics of the motor. I had a problem once where my XR4 was beeping as if it was a low oil condition and it turned out I had a bad power-pack on one bank of cylinders.
