Hi! Im having some problems with my xpdi.

Is was whent out yesterday and the motor wouldent crank over, i got some jump cabels and got it running again.
I was running for 4 min when it got in to limp mode and the maintains light flashing. I got it to the shore and it whouldent crank over, i check the battery cabels and the voltage (12,2 V ).

I charged up the battery and went out today, it startet fine and run smoothly for 15 min when it suddenly went into limpmode again :(

I got in and checked the voltage 12,5V i tryed starting it but it wouldent crank over.
Allso when i connected the landyard key to the pwc and it gave me 7 rappid beeps, and sometime 3 and 6 and mostly 2 normal ones when i connected it over and over again.
Got it up on the trailer and got it starting again and checked the charging while running 13,6V so it's charging.

Now i have no ide whats rong? :confused:

Sorry again for the bad english but im norwegian.
 
Could be you rectifier is bad

I have e new rectifier and is charging at 13,5 volt, so it has to be somthing else ? :/

It only says maint (service) in the display with a loud beep every 20 sec, it dosn't say 12v low like it did last year when the rectifier was bad.

Is it possible the battery is bad even if it has 12,5v ? It's a gel battery 3 year old.
 
Definately could be the battery.It is my understanding with a weak battery, it puts an extra load on the charging system, and since yours is a DI it has a large power requirement for the computer, and injection system. If you keep running on a weak battery, you could burn out the regulator/rectifier, or burn out the stator coils in the mag, because of overheating. A three year old battery is definately old enough to quit putting out a charge under load. I'd say replace your battery
 
Well i found out the problem, it was a bad rectifire which created problems for me. When i rev up to 6000rpm the rectifire can't charge the battery and pwc drains to mutch voltage.
