Help with ideas please....My 1993 SeaDoo GTX has very low hours. Wife and I take out just 2-3 times a summer. The last few seasons it has occasionally been where I have to depress the starter button more and more times to get it to crank over from the starter. When it would not start, it would just make a clicking noise which I assume was the solenoid. Eventually, it would start after 10-20 times depressing button on dash. About July this Summer, it did start just fine and I ran it for three minutes with hose attached getting ready to go to the lake. Never made it. Now, late season, we are ready to go to the lake. It just clicks, but is not engaging the starter. Not turning over at all.
I had a trickle charger on it. Battery has voltage. I even took batt down for a "load test" from battery store. Amps and voltage were told were fine I was told.
I found the negative cable with tarnished look, so I shined it up with some sandpaper.
I found the negative cable on the starter itself slightly loose and snugged it up with a socket and extension.
Still just clicking noises from I assume the solenoid.
Any ideas or similar problems and fixes are greatly appreciated.
This is my first time trying to use a forum.
Thank You - Larry
