Ok, im new to the forums and everyone seams very helpful from what i have been reading, so here is my story.
i recently purchased a 1999 gtx limited for 400 bucks, the thing is mint but of course the skirt broke off one of the pistons and blew out the side of the block, so buying it i knew i had to rebuild the engine. So i purchased a good engine from a good source with 10 hours on it,
after it was all done i tried to start it but the battery was crap so i put a new one in. After that it turned over for about 10 sec and the starter went out, so i put a new starter on it. After all this money and a pain in my a$$ the ting has no spark, none at all.
i checked all the fused and i didnt just look at them i actually did a continuity test and they are all good.
the lanyard beeps 2 times when i install it but i have noticed sometimes it doesnt but i can hear the speaker make 2 clicking noises so i think the speaker is just going bad.
the next thing i did is check the white wires going to the coils and i have no voltage while cranking. no at all, now i did this with a volt meter and got nothing. i read and it seams some people are using test lights but i figure a meter would work just fine.
no i have not checked the stator or anything in the case yet. but i do knwo the stator and stuff is good on my old engine.
does anyone have any suggestions before i go spend hundreds of dollars at the seadoo dealer?
do you think the rev limter is grounding the coils? or coudl the stator be bad?
is there a way to test voltage out of the stator without removing it for no reason. i hope someone can help i really want to get out and ride my new toy
THANKS IN ADVANCE
