Can anyone with experience lend me some guidance on installing the OEM SeaDoo depth finder system on my 2006 RXT? The instructions only include pics of it being installed in an RXP model (though it is for both the RXP and RXT models according to the instructions!). The wiring harness when run as...

Need a little help here, since my SC was starting to leak oil and nearly at 100 hours of run time I got a rebuild kit and am in the middle of rebuilding the infernal thing. Problem is, I can't get the 2 halves to split open! Arghhh! Looks like they are silicone'd together from the factory...

Yesterday when starting my RXT at the lake I noticed for just a second or two while the starter is engaged I'm getting a "low-vlt" warning message scrolling across my display... it goes away just as soon as the engine starts though. My battery is not quite 3 years old and I keep it charged with...

Ok I appear to have dinged the underside of my black hull against the trailer somehow, there's a chip under the bow that goes clear thru to the fiberglass I just noticed the other day. Eeek! So I pulled out my trusty Gelcoat International SeaDoo 2006 Black repair kit today... to find it had...

Got this in my Inbox this morning, very cool but is it something BRP is developing (or partnering with)? http://www.youtube.com/embed/Cd6C1vIyQ3w Looks like tonnes of fun, but also dang dangerous (if the rider were to accidentally come down atop their PWC... the PWC providing power will...

Something I've noticed for awhile now, my engine's exhaust get's significantly louder at just over 5000 rpm's and I feel a slight vibration increase... but once into the upper 5K or low 6K the sound level (from the exhaust at least... wind screaming past my ears get's mighty loud though hehehe!)...

:rant: Seems like every other day somebody posts in this PWC forum questions about their SeaDoo BOAT problems... it's a little frustrating. I checked out the Boat forums just now and they have an appropriate Sticky at the forum beginning directing folks NOT to post PWC questions in the...

Last question: My 2006 RXT didn't come factory with a VTS system (wasn't even an option for this 1 year model!)... can the VTS system from an ~2006 model RXP (or 2004-05 RXT) be retrofitted to this 2006 RXT I have? In 2006, RXP's came with VTS but it wasn't even an option for the 2006 RXT for...

Are there any good options for a depth guage on SeaDoo's which didn't come with factory OEM depth sounder installed? The OEM depth sounders appear to run ~$300 or so for my RXT, which seems mighty pricey for a simple depth sounder... are there any good aftermarket alternatives that work well and...

How can you tell when it's time to change the carbon ring on the pump seal? Ok obviously if water is flooding in thru the seal then it's probably way PAST time to change it... but what are the symptoms of a carbon ring wearing out otherwise? How long do they generally last? Mine's at 74 hrs so...

Uhmmmm... just curious why Texas is considered part of the West Coast Region? We're the Gulf Coast Region or so I thought. :seeya: - Michael

Well I took my 2006 RXT to the lake this afternoon and though the lake is getting low I was able to walk it out past the boat launch and piers to deeper water and take off (by next weekend, it's going to be too shallow to launch even PWC's anymore, we're so DRY here!). The water at the boat...

How many hours is the carbon ring generally good for? My RXT has 74 hrs on it now, and I believe the carbon ring has started to chatter... at 50 to 55 mph I hear a noise in the back (sounds almost like really loud exhaust, but all exhaust clamps are tight I checked!), and on the trailer anything...

Ok it came off again, and I had the clamp VERY tight and I felt the exact instant it came off. I was cruising this evening at about 32 mph, holding steady throttle, and suddenly it dropped 300 rpm's and 4 mph... I knew immediately that the hose had come off again. Sure enough once I loaded...

Here's the ideal combination of tools to change your impeller... an old hitch drawbar (minus the ball), a 1/2" drive breakover bar, a 1/2" drive 12mm socket, and a piece of 12mm allen wrench (cut off 2 inches long with a dremel and cutoff wheel), and the impeller change tool. Have a...

If you wonder what the inside of the brown OEM starter relay looks like when it starts the "click without starting" trend, here it is! Looks like the electrical contacts have developed some charring over time and it's now unable to pass current thru them when the relay is engaged? I may...

Since everybody seems to be getting their Doo's out and ready for the holiday weekend, I'd like to say something about hydrolocking your engines... don't do it! If you're running your PWC on the trailer hooked to a water hose, the procedure is: Start engine, turn on water... turn off water...

I was stopped this past weekend by Texas Parks and Wildlife officers on Lake Livingston for a safety/permits inspection (they were stopping EVERYBODY in fact; 2 other guys on PWC's got busted for no fire extingishers and were ticketed and told to put 'em up). They checked my paperwork and wanted...

Ok so it was starting fine late last October when I winterized it and put it up for the winter season.... now though, it takes 5 to 6 pushes of the Start/Stop button to get the starter to engage (click, click, click, click, click, click, vrrrrmmm!). Battery is good, new last Fall and had Battery...

Ok I've searched these forums and read and read for almost 2 hours now... what is the stock impeller pitch for a 2006 RXT 215hp? What would be a good aftermarket performance impeller pitch for it? I'd like to put a Solas impeller in (nice and shiney!), but don't want to kill the top-end and...
