1). Check the fuse
2). If it is good, unplug the VTS motor and run a positive and ground wire to the plug. It will move one way, swap the wires and it should move the other way.
3). If the above are good or function as they should, the odds are VERY high that the VTS module is defective. This is a pretty common issue.

No matter what you find, remove the boot in the back as I am betting you will find water in it. Replace or reseal as needed.

Also, if the module is defective, remove and LEAVE OUT the fuse for the VTS as it can easily kill the MPEM for some reason.

You will find the motor by looking at the VTS. The motor is mounted within the hull, normally way in the back on the left saide (Facing forward as tough you were on the ski).

It's been so long it could have drained out at this point. Remove the bellows and covers and see what you have.
