Power to bulge pump.

Good morning. I have been given a 2008 Seadoo Islandia & my Question is. Does the bulge pump work when power switch is in off position?

You mean when the battery selector switch is in the “Off” position or the switch on the dash? I believe it will run regardless if either is off, but will double check the owner’s manual.

From my manual (Challenger), but is likely the same for you. Even with switch off and battery switch off, it will still run if water is detected

Hmm "bulge pump" sounds like something you'd find in an adult book store.

My pleasure.
You leaving it in a slip or dock for a long time? Unless you have a hole in it or it’s not covered and rains (or cover has a leak), shouldn’t be much intrusion of water that it would kick on. But I know the uneasy feeling!
