I RECENTLY BOUGHT A 98 & 99 GTX LIMITED SEADOO. THE 99 IS AWESOME, THE 98 IS DRIVING ME INSANE. THE 98 WOULDNT START WHEN I BOUGHT IT. I PUT A NEW BATTERY, STARTER AND STARTER RELAY IN AND GOT IT TO START. THEN I FOUND A BIGGER PROBLEM. THE MESSAGE CENTER WAS TELLING ME THERE WAS LOW (12V) VOLTAGE. WHAT IS HAPPENING IS THE BATTERY IS BEING DRAINED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER I START IT. SO WHEN YOU SHUT IT OFF AND TRY TO RESTART IT THERE IS NOTHING. I RECHARGED MY BATTERY AND RETRYED IT AND IT STARTED. I TESTED THE MAGNETO TO SEE IF THE CHARGING STATOR WAS BAD. THE OHMS TEST WAS GOOD. THE AC VOLTAGE TEST WAS GOOD. SO AFTER ALL THIS I GUESS MY QUESTION IS, IS THE ELECTRONIC MODULE BAD. IT IS HARD TO TEST BECAUSE EVERYTHING IS ENCLOSED. THE VOLTAGE REGULATOR IS HOUSED
WITHIN THE MODULE. ALOT OF MONEY TO REPLACE I WANT TO BE REALLY SURE THAT IS IT BEFORE SPENDING ALOT OF MONEY. HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM OR KNOW WHAT IT COULD BE?
THANKS JEFF :cheers:
