Charging system?

Sounds like you may have a problem with your charging system. Check all your fuses to make sure they are o.k.

Then, go to Wal Mart and get an inexpensive multi meter. Charge your battery back up, trickle it overnight. Then, check the battery with your meter. You should be showing about 12 VDC. Now, start the ski. After it's running and you turn on your water, take your meter and connect it to the battery. You should now be showing about 14 to 14.5 VDC. That means your charging system is good. If you show no difference from when the ski was not running, then your regulator/rectifier is probably shot and will need to be replaced..............:cheers:
