I think they beep for a reason...but lots of time you pull up beside someone and shut it off and talk about the wave you jumped or the topless chick on the big boat, etc... and when you do if you don't reach up and pull the key off it keeps beeping. to let you know your key is in but not running. If I push start/stop the unit will start thus we can't talk. I just find it annoying, a little.

Beeps....?
This feature is relatively new on the Seadoo's. The older model's have a timer on them that shuts down the electrical system after being idle for 33 seconds. Because of the electronics on these newer ones, the shut off timer has been eleminated because of the possibility of shorting out one of those expensive ECU, sensor or any of a huge host of electrical components.
When you place the lanyard on the post, if you do not start in 5 seconds, you will get a set of 4 beeps every 3 seconds as a reminder to disconnect the lanyard because your electrical system is charged. It will do this for 2 hours before it silences.
I agree with the others above, why don't you just take off the lanyard. That to me seems like the easiest fix...............:cheers:

Rule of thumb, and recommended by Sea-Doo, is to shut down your seadoo by pulling the lanyard off the post. They don't recommend just pushing the stop start buttons. If you remember to practice this, the beeping won't be there...the start /stop switches will last longer and you'll never forget to disconnect the lanyard.

They recommended this? Is there a mechanical reason? or just safety precaution to know u cannot accidentally restart... I find this could be a hazard in a sense if you need to restart quickly in order to avoid an object or other situation.
Well, lets count the ways why you shouldn't leave the lanyard on and use the start/ stop buttons to shut it down.
1 If left on, it has constant power to the electricial and will drain
down the battery.
2 Someone could easily steal your seadoo with the lanyard left
on the post while your away.
3 By using the start/ stop buttons it will cause you to use them
twice as much causing them to need replacing sooner.
4 Being as the seadoo is a direct drive and you miss the
start/ stop button you might not shut down the seadoo
and run into something.
5 Pulling off the lanyard is quicker than fumbling around for the
start/ stop button.
6 Seadoo made the lanyard idiot proff, as it beeps so you won't
forget it on the post to have it stolen or run down the battery.
Ok I guess that sums it up...did I forget anything?

OK, sums it up!
Thanks, :cheers:
I usually take the key w/ me when I leave since it's tied to my PFD,(JACKET) and my truck will not stop beeping but there was an option to make it more quiet. I'm just glad I got some attention on this thread. I can see the reason to have it for safety issues. When going into the dock I found that now I have the F N R options to slow and navigate, and I dont' need to do the start and stopping to move it in and out of tight places, so I guess it's not that big of a deal as I learn more about my watercraft! HOWEVER, if you see my wife on one, go the other way!
