93 XP Problem, No Power (electrical) ?

[Wylie]

Ok guys,

I have a 93 XP that was tuned up two years ago and never used again. Well i put a new battery in today and it does nothing. It's like there is not even a battery in it. The gas gauge won't move when ya push the button, no starter turn over...nothing... Is there a fuse somewhere or something. I have never actually worked on one of these things

anyone have any sugestions on what to check or replace to fix it. It's on a lift so i can't even get it on a trailer

Thanks for any hints

There is an electrical box (follow the plug wires) with fuses in it - try those first.

check the ground wire , there short on that ski and break very easy . clean all contacts it sounds like a drity connection . before you start the ski , grease the though hull fitting and PTO , sitting that long they could be dry .also check all hoses for cracking take very close inspection of the oil lines on the intake .

Well,

I got to the electronics box and the 5 amp fuse was blown. It is the one on the half of the box that all the wires go into and is mounted along with a 15 amp fuse on some type of epoxyed module. It's next to a voltage regular "looking" component. so I pop another 5 amp fuse in, blew instantly, tried a 15 just to see what it would do and it blew instantly. So, i'm thinking some component in here is causing this, any ideas ??? [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thanks for the help....

could be your stator is shorted , you did check to make sure the battyer is not hooked up backwards i hope ? somthing to try is to disconnect the trim /all guages then put in a fuse , if it dont pop then plug in one that at a time . you will find the problem as soon as you plug it in :) you can oms test the stator the check for a short , or just pull the cover and flywheel , if its rusty you can bet thats it . also try unpluging the rectifire , if all dont work your mpem is toast :-(

Is stator the same as starter? [img]smile.gif[/img] or is there something else your refering to, trust me i don't know. I'm more of a computer and auto guy :D

PS: battery IS hooked up right... won't go but one way anyway due to the short ground cable :D

stator not starter , the stator is under the flywheel .
