Small update, sorry I haven’t posted the solution but here goes. I jumped the ground directly from the pump to the engine block and the pump/boat fired right up and ran perfectly. Checked the ground wire between the pump and ECM and everything still checked out. I ended up bringing the boat to...

No, the head unit only has one remote plug. I had to order a “Y” in order to get 2 remotes to work. I also had to order extensions for the remote cables, the “Y” and extensions were kind of pricey (for a piece of wire) and painful to order but I love having remotes that give me Radio...

Only some people will get the reference, and I love it when someone comes up to me and says “that’s awesome, I love the name of your boat”.

How does the Solas do? Any difference that you can tell? None that I can tell. I went with the Solas because it’s very sharp on The leading edge and it should help limit the amount of problems caused by pieces of seaweed which is the main concern (after rope) for problems on the water here in...

I replaced the stock ring with a stainless on recommendation of the repair shop, the mechanic at Jet Ski Repair Shop in St Pete FL convinced me that the stainless was for sure the way to go. He also equated it to if you get anything major sucked into the pump the stainless would limit the amount...

Unfortunately no. The only similar ones that come up on eBay don’t have the correct ECM #’s

Unfortunately no, still looking

Good idea, I will check the continuity of the original ground wire. If that doesn’t give me any answers I’ll jump it. Originally I was trying to avoid cutting the ground wire but i think it’s inevitable in order to determine the issue.

I took the ECM to the local shop, he put it in a 215 there and the fuel pump worked every time we turned it on. I took an ECM that he had and installed it my boat and still nothing. A assumed all of the ground cables went to the same spot on the front of the engine, I removed, wire brushed and...

So, it’s definitely a ground problem. If I put my meter on the + of the fuel pump plug and the - on the engine block I get full 12V when I turn the key on but if I put the + & - of my meter on the pins of the fuel pump plug I only get 7-9V. I removed and cleaned all the ground connectors on the...

Will do! The most frustrating thing is trying to find the time to get in there. The other frustrating thing is I’m starting to get the feeling that it’s something real stupid that causing all these issues. I’ll keep the post updated with what I find.

Alright, little update. I got the ECM back home, plugged into the boat and as usual, no fuel pump. I hooked the volt meter up to the fuel pump plug using plugs 12V and the fuel pump plugs ground & when I plug the key in, I get about 9.5V for about 2 seconds and then it drops to about 7.5V. If I...

Anyone have any recommendations where to pick up a used ECM?

Alright so a little update. I’ve been super busy so I’ve only gotten to work on it little bits here and there. First, turned out my voltmeter was broken and I DO have power at the pump. However, still no fuel pumping. I unplugged the fuel pump at the top of the gas tank and hit the contacts...

2010 Challenger 180SE. A couple of weeks ago I was out on the bay and running great for about 2 hours, stopped for about 2 hours and then when we went to leave it wouldn’t start. Had to get towed home (thank god for insurance!). Once I got it in the driveway I tried to start it and still nothing...
