We've been out like 9 out of the last 14 days. On the 4th we were out. After about 5 hours went to head back in and engine wouldn't start. Had to call BoatUS to tow us in. After checking several things it comes down to there is no spark.
I did notice that when we were going out that my Uniden Radio was beeping battery high voltage and my little chinese battery volt dispaly was showing 16.5v on one batter and 13.5 on the other. I don't ever recall that happening before or ever reading that high.The one reading 16.5 is a new Interstate battery that came out of my van that no longer runs. Not sure if this indicates something...
So reading searching I am going to need to test the stator. All the videos show them already out and sitting on their table. Mine isn't yet cuz the boat is stuck at the dock till I either upgrade my towing package or find a tow to the ramp. Thinking maybe my buddy's jet ski as its no more than 2 or 3 football fields to the ramp. Anyways
I found this resource my SN is 0B228735
So looking at the wires coming out from under the fly wheel which I assume are the Stator wires I have the green/white n white/green and two yellows. Now my wires are connected with butt plugs to the other ends that run elsewere. So to make sure I do this right
I just unplug the green/white and white/green and insert the ohm meter ends in and test that. If it hits the 500-600 then I'll need to check the rectifier and switch box I assume. Rectifier is new so hoping that is not it at all. Will suck ass if it is.
Thanks
