OK took out the GTX on Lake Ontario yesterday evening, light winds, swells only about 1 foot or so.

The rebuilt speedometer did not really register any speed under 5 mph, according to GPS on my marine radio, but over that, the gauge on the Seadoo was within about 2 mph of the GPS. I had to double check it a few times around 35-45 mph, it reported top speed of 58 mph.

The replacement thermocouple to sense water temp seems to work quite well too, pretty close to what is reported by weather service. I did not have another in water thermometer to compare the accuracy.

Since I now have a dozen of the SS41s and the Zeners, and based on how much help all the members of Seadooforum have provided . . . . if you have a dead speedo pickup, and you are certain that the pickup is the issue, and want it working again, PM me. You ship it to me and I will repair it and ship it back to you, no charge! Limited to the first 10 or so replies, I am not going to buy more SS41s, but no problem to use the parts I have already purchased.

Can you send me a pic of how to wire just the ss41 and zeners please i dont need the water temp part

I bought the parts to fix the sensors but I can't read this stuff. Clueless I am. I threw them all away. Stings a bit paying $170 for the GPS speed sensor that is plug and play. The prices on the used Seadoo sensors are insane as well for old junk. If someone could do a more simple drawing that would be helpful.
