  Stephen ChangAug 15, 2025
  If your Sea-doo Boat engine turns normally but fails to start, there might be several reasons. The engine could be fuel flooded, which requires specific procedures. Alternatively, the fuel tank might be empty or contaminated with water, so refill it. A burnt fuel pump fuse could also be the culprit; check the wiring and replace the fuse if necessary. Lastly, consider the spark plugs – if they're fouled or defective, replace them.

  If your Sea-doo Boat engine doesn't turn over, start by ensuring the safety lanyard is properly installed over the switch. If it is, check for a burnt fuse and replace it after inspecting the wiring. Other potential issues, such as a discharged battery or corroded battery connections, require referring to an authorized dealer. If the engine has been flooded with water, consult the Submerged Watercraft section in SPECIAL PROCEDURES.

What to do if my Sea-doo Boat gives 1 long beep?
- M
  Mr. Ray AdkinsSep 6, 2025
  If your Sea-doo Boat emits one long beep when installing the safety lanyard or pressing the start/stop button, it could indicate several issues. If the safety lanyard has been on the switch for more than 10 minutes without starting the engine, remove and reinstall it. A bad connection could also be the cause, so reinstall the safety lanyard cap correctly. Ensure you are using a safety lanyard programmed for the craft; if not, use the correct one. A defective safety lanyard can also cause this, so try another programmed lanyard. Salt water in the safety lanyard cap can interfere, so clean the cap. For other potential issues, consult an authorized dealer.
