What kind of steering setup is that?

 

[snsbuck]

Looks like painted oem stem with house plumbing trim ring...

 

[MPower]

That's what I thought, wonder why he pulled the UMI off?

you nailed it

 

[Ankeneyou]

Yah looks like an escutcheon for a pool ladder or handicapped rail.

 

[Ankeneyou]

Scott why did you ditch the UMI? Sold when you were thinking of ditching the project?

yep, i made out really good on it. im sure i will do umi when i find one thats cheep. but it looks good for now. only thing it is missing.

i'm having a problem now tho. i put power to the ski and as soon as you hit start to wake the ski up (no key on) it will just give you a long beep. when you put the key on it will beep two times and ski will turn right over, but then again the long beep is still going on....any help?

thinks i need to do still is fix the trim motor, and make a bracket for the spc 2, cant find mine lol.

 

[Ankeneyou]

One long beep is dess key issues.

 

[glsmohio]

thats interesting, it even still gives to beeps and turns the ski over lol

 

[Ankeneyou]

If you can turn over, then I believe it would be the temp sensor.

 

[glsmohio]

well I tried a new temp sensor and that didn't fix it so I guess I'll trace the wire tonight

 

[rooster18]

Nice work. The ski looks great. Good luck with the electric issues, would love to see this thing on the water.

Right it thinks it's hot. The tan wire must be grounded somehow.

 

[glsmohio]

ok so i found the problem with the temp sensor ( i had a wire in the wrong spot). next thing is can any one tell me how long the trim rod is on the 96 xp (from the black part to the threads). i would really like to get this thing on the water this weekend. and i just need to do that and make my bracket.
