Hello,
First timer here. I have a 1996 seadoo XP that does not do anything when you put the key in or push the start button. The battery is good, I have a like machine and pulled the electrical box (gray box) out of that and swapped them, and have the same issue. I did notice though, If I take out the connection from the black electrical box in the back by the battery and plug it back it, I get lights and the gas gauges lights up, however nothing happens if I push the start button. I'm guessing it's a ground? I have no clue where to start. I've removed all of the components from the black electrical box and tested them with an ohm meter, and everything checks out.
I have power to the one side of the starter relay, all of the fuses checked out, and I can jump the start relay, although the starter is weak to turn over (even though the battery is fully charged. I thought maybe the ground wires, but every time I put an ohm meter on it, I get tone on every ground wire back to the Battery ground. I've ruled out the gray electrical box since i've tested that from another ski. I'm happy to take pictures or anything that may help.
Thank you in advance to any help. I just find it weird that if I unplug the connection from the top of the black electrical box in the back and plug it back in, the gauges light up and work, but after the short period of time that they stay on, they die out and the start button doesn't turn them back on.
