I pulled out my 1999 Seadoo GTX last year without any problems, pulled the battery and stored it for the winter. The weather is nice and I'm ready to start riding her again, but the ski is dead as a door nail.
I dropped a freshly charged battery in, installed the key and nothing happens. Usally when the key is installed it beeps twice, this time nothing.

Any ideas out there????
Thanks,

I checked the fuses in the front of the ski, I'll need to remove the rear box and check those out next.

Thanks.

did you get it started since May? My guess would have been to check the grounding. A bit of corrosion there could make all the difference.

I found one of the fuses in the rear compartment was just about blown apart. After cleaning the corrosion and dropping in a new fuse, she started beautifully.

As soon as I get my engine rebuilt in my 1200R, I;ll be a happy camper again. Looks like the cam shaft.

Thanks everyone,
