96 XP no beep from lanyard

[yankees27]

i got my XP running after a year idle. Ran great all day. New battery. Next day I went to start it and the key beeped, started to turn over an then just shut off. Tried again but no beep at all. Could the batterry have died already or could this be a fuse. Mpem box but I don't know where that is. HELP. THANKs

Could be a fuse, also try cleaning the tab in the key with an eraser, and clean the post.....also, I think the Mpem is located under the from storage compartment in the front... black box.

Make sure you check your battery cables. I had the same problem the other day and after checking everything but my battery connections, I still had nothing! The positive terminal has a crimp on connector and it wasn't making a good connection. Squeezed that bugger as hard as I could and it started right up. Good luck......

i had the same problem pull the lanyard off hit the start botton 5 times untill you hear the beeps put the lanyard back on and you might not get beeps but your ski should try to start when you hit the start botton if it starts pull the lanyard back off and put it back on and you should have beeps...

2. Press 5 times on the watercraft start / stop button.
NOTE : 1 short beep and 1 long beep must be heard. They validate beginning of diagnostic mode.
3. Install safety lanyard on watercraft switch.
4. Press the watercraft start / stop button again.
NOTE : If everything is correct, engine will start. Otherwise, refer to the following chart.
