Steering cable sticks....

[Rrm1387]

When i turn the handle bars all the way left or right it sticks. Moves freely a little squeeky. Any thoughts.

#1 Get an oem SeaDoo or oem equivalent quality cable kit.

#2 Have someone VERY qualified put it in. Can be fairly easy...need 1 long socket. CAUTION! THIS JOB MUST BE DONE CORRECTLY! If you are not 100% confident in your ability, don't touch it.

To confirm it is the cable, disconnect the handle bars and the nozzle. Move them stock to stock. If smooth and quiet, then it is the cable..

How do you romove the cable from the handle bar . You can hardly seen the cable

I opened up the panel to look at where the cable attaches to the steering column. Ok im not the best wrench but how do you remove what you cant see. I had to take a picture with my phone to see. It looks like you need to remove the steering column to get to the cable yes or no

Hi,

How did you go with the steering problem i have the same issue with mine.

I squirted liquid film on all the moving part that I could get to. It still sticks a little but you use it on the water you hardly notice. I'm really not sure yet how to get the cable off without removing the entire column
