Every year my GTX DI will go into a default mode and not go over 30 mph
and the alarm keeps blairing. This time it says "maintenance needed 12v
low". Now I just put in a brand new gel battery so I know the voltage
is not low. I think something is screwed up in the "brain" of this
thing. Is there a way I can reset this default mode myself so I can go
faster than 30mph without the alarm blasting me? The dealer is of no
help, they say nothing is wrong with it, so I either cut some wires or
trade this in for a different one. BTW its a 2002 GTX DI. Any ideas
from anyone?

Do you know if your charging system is working properly??

That will do it every time. And SeaDoo's are notorious for eating their
charging rectifier/regulators.

I thought there was no charging system on this ski?, Are you saying
there is some type system which keeps the battery charged?, because I
dont think there is. And if there is how do I check my charging system?

All PWC's have a charging system stock from the factory. Yours is
mounting on the side of your main computer. Put a meter across your
battery posts. Take note of the reading. Crank the ski and then take
note of the reading. If there was an increase of voltage to around
13.5-13.8 your charging system is working. If not get ready to spend
about $137 for a new rectifier.

I better make sure my doo stays fed, I wouldn't want it eating anything
other than race gas. Gel batteris suck, dump it and get a wet battery.

Seriously, I've had nothing but trouble with gel batteries, your not
going to convince me they're better than a wet battery.

Good for you, I went through three of them, different brands, they all
sucked. I speak from personal experience. Good day, enjoy your law
suit,

Dave, I check the battery like you said:
Before start up the voltage was 12.5v
After start up the voltage increased to 14v
So I guess that is not the problem, any other ideas. By the way, when
the problem happens, if I run the ski for a while, then shut it down
and resart, the problem goes away and I can go over 30mph and no alarm.
Not sure what that means, any idea??

I think it's well established that YOU'RE THE NEWSGROUP FOOL. No pissing
contest is necessary, we'll just give you the title.

BTW, how's bangme.net going for you these days? Meet any crack whores? LOL!

Docscott,
The dealer should be able to pull up the fault code and be able to tell
what it says. Even though it is charging, I guess the rectifier could
still be working intermittantly.

The ONLY company?
That's news to me you moron.
How about 4 companies west of Mississippi river like ADA and James Crone
and two others.
And 6 people East of Mississippi that is 12 total.
Like I said your brain has turned in to pile of dong.

The only idiot is the one you see in the mirror.

Considering Ricky's credit score I doubt he owns a mirror.

Ummmm......

I thought we were talking about my "maintenance needed" error code,
