Mercruiser smart craft gauge sweep then into neutral at high speed .

[slx210]

Hi guys i have recently purchased a 2015 Sea Ray slx 210 with a 350 mag and bravo III , it also has the dts electronic shift and throttle . This boat only has 24hrs on it . I was on the water today and at higher speeds the gauges will beep , do a sweep and at the same time the boat will go into neutral at once bringing the boat to a halt. While the boat is in neutral state the throttle lever is in forward position . When this happens i can go to neutral position than forward and boat will be fine . this happened once and it bounced of the rev limiter until i pulled the throttle back . This happened to me three times today . Thank you in advance any help or input will be greatly appreciated .

Try a wiggle test on the ignition key while it’s running. Maybe a bad connection in the ignition switch?

check all battery and harness connectors. Something is loose somewhere.
