Hello All.
First time post here, mainly because I've not had any issues with my Sea-doo (not what I can say about my old Yamaha). My 2005 is "new to me" for about 4 years and has been running great. I bought it from a mechanic who took care of it but he's no longer around. Here's what I'm looking at and can use some guidance as to where to go/look next.
I'm up north so my skis were winterized as usual. About a month ago I uncovered them both, opened them up to air out and cleaned them off. My GTX turned over a few times and then fired up so I let it run for a little while and then stopped it. My 1999 Yamaha needed a complete top end rebuild so over the next month I worked on that and got it back together and that now runs fine.
Now I go back to my Sea-Doo and I just get a basic clunk like there's not enough juice. Battery was older so I replaced that and while I was at it, I replaced the starter solenoid. Still get the same type of clunk like it want's to turn the engine over but can't. I removed the plugs and same results. I don't want to start digging into replacing the starter if that's not it.
When I put the keyfob on the post, I get my two beeps and dash comes on. I have no error codes and my fuses seem fine. I cleaned up the ground a little and made sure they were tight.
Any guidance as to where to look would be appreciated.
