newbie question pump running?

[ANDYstepan]

Guys -
I have a 99 seadoo challenger - I got it last winter but just took it out. I have some questions

1)I went out this morning and there is a pump running sounds like near the engines - in my instrument cluster the top left switch is lit but not on.....I have no clue what the button is - but I can't seem to shut it off.....any ideas? (I don't have the manual)
2)there is a fan button next to it on the cluster. What is this for? Once again what's it used for? it seems to blow back by the engines....what's the general usage guidlines?

Thanks so much...
Andy

that motor your hearing, is the "bilge" pump. Flip the switch, or if still on, then open engine hatch, and reach down by the drain plug. You'll see it there, and something is lodged under the "sensor" on pump, keeping it running.

The fan is for, prior to staring up boat, to "ventilate" out the gas fumes, not bad idea to keep on, until you pass the wake zone...run it for 5minutes.
