Hi PWC gurus. I have a 92 XP and a 96 GTX. My 92 will crank over but has no spark. I have looked through others answers to find where to start looking. I pulled out and opened the electrical box yesterday and found that one of the 2 fuse holders had melted, locking the fuse in place. Both fuses come off the same lug on the solenoid and into the "black box". Melted electronics scare me..Todd
 
Not good.....

That's not good. Can you look at the good fuse and see what amp it is. The good fuse is probably going to be the 5 amp (lets hope anyway).

This could have happened from a few different scenerios. Jumping it from a vehicle with the motor running, magneto shorted out or the regulator/rectifier is bad with an open circuit.

In any case, chances of the electronic module being toast is a real possiblity. That'll set you back about $400 bucks.:ack:
 
It sounds like it needs a new Electronic Module.

Speculating....

Unplug the black/red wire between the mpem and coil and see if it starts. If it does, you have an issue with a switch or the rev limiter in the mpem. If it doesn't, the stator or coil are the places to look. Also, if it does start with that unplugged, be prepared to kill with the choke since the stop and lanyard buttons are bypassed
 
MPEM verses Electronic module...?

The year is 1992. During this time, the Seadoo's all used an electronic control module that controlled engine revolutions and power to the ignition system.

The mpem (multi purpose electronic module) came into service around 1996, when the first DESS (digital electronic security system) was implemented. From this time forward, the multi purpose of the MPEM has been used in multiple tasks for interpreting information.

My point is, though they both do the same thing, models prior to 96 had no other mutliple functions, there fore, it was known as an ECM, which you'll also find a lot cheaper to replace than an MPEM.....:cheers:
