Sorry posted it in pwc first.
I have a seadoo challenger 97 with single 787. On a fresh rebuild about 15 hours, I have been having trouble with a 2 beep no crank from timed to time. about five weeks ago got the lake had it out for awhile went start 2 beeps nothing no crank. Towed into shore Got home started right could not get it to fail, so I replace solenoid. Had it out two more time no issue. two weeks ago pull it off the trailer. 2 beeps no start, looked around at it jumped solenoid turned right over but with push start just 2 beeps the nothing. ended up wigging the main harness going into the module (not sure if that's the cdi box, mpem or dess module) behind steering wheel, wiggled it and started right up. Yeah being the lakes 2 hours away! Worked all that day and two others. mon was at the lake work great all day 4pm after a short ride out to the middle shut her off. Twenty minutes later acted like battery was dead. It would just tap the starter repeatedly like it was seized just " tink tink tink tink tink" but it seems like the battery would lose voltage but at battery 12.62 drop to 12.3 when it taps the starter and the gages would reset and oil light would drop after tink. so towed in again. got home pulled head to see if that piston was not seized. All good there so jumped the solenoid and spun perfect. hit it with the button "tink tink tink tink tink. check dess port 0 ohms top post to white wire on port black 0 ohm to ring. blk/yel to blk no continuity put lanyard I then get continuity. jumped starter button same thing. look at unit under front bin behind steering wheel. nothing, all fuses are good. checked more connectors seen nothing going to check main ground tomorrow. about a hour it started to turn over again. anyone have any ideas?
thanks for your time everytime!
