Check to see if the battery is still good. It might have 12 volts in it but not enough amps to fire up the seadoo. I would bring it to like Auto Zone to have it load tested. Next check to see if the start kill switch is working ok.

95 xp wont start.

I have spent two days on and off trying to get my 95 XP satrted, bought the ski from a guy who Imports from the USA. Had plent of power plenty of fuel getting through but no start. Finally found the problem as my spark plug leads where worn out inside the boot end (the end that goes onto the spark plug) I was able to remove the boot from the lead cut back along the lead to find a new section of lead with all new wire inside the core and replace the boot back onto the new end of the lead. The engine turned over and started straight away. Hope this helps.
See ya later from a land down under Lowthg

I'm glad you found the problem. There are a few things to check that could could lead to the problem,and cutting off 1/4 " from the Plug wires if it's a bad connection will help too.
