96 Spi has no electrical power

[ddeason007]

Hi everyone, new to the forum.

96 spi cleaned up after winter storage, ran great last year. Installed new battery and it started strong some of the time, other times nothing, not even a click. Took it out and it ran great for about 10 minutes, then shut down completely. Gas gauge doesn't even work. I suspect a blown fuse but before I start poking around thought someone might have some suggestions. Thinking that blown fuse might be caused by bad solenoid which also caused it to only start some of the time??

Also, the ski has never beeped when you install lanyard. Do all models have the beep?

Any suggestions very much appreciated.

check all your grounds, connections, sounds like a loose connection to me

Thanks for the quick reply. Should start "tracing" this thing out this afternoon.

Im betting your 5 amp fuse is blown, if so do not put anything larger than 5 amps in there and PM me!!!
