Sea-doo 2001 GTS, Operator'S Manual, Page: 142 / 180

MONITORING SYSTEM
A system monitors the electronic com-
ponents of the EMS (engine manage-
ment system), iBR (if equipped), and
other components of the electrical
system. When a fault occurs, it sends
visual messages through the infor-
mation center and/or audible signals
through a beeper to inform you of a
particular condition.
A fault code may also be recorded.
When a minor or transient fault oc-
curs, the fault message and beeper
will cease automatically if the condi-
tion that caused the fault does not ex-
ist anymore.
Releasing the throttle and letting the
engine return to idle speed may allow
normal operation to return. If this does
not work, try removing the tether cord
from the engine cut-off switch, waiting
5 minutes, then restarting.
The electronic system will react differ-
ently depending on the fault type. If a
severe failure occured, the engine may
not be allowed to be started. In other
cases, the engine will operate in limp
home mode (reduced speed).
When a fault occurs, see an authorized
Sea-Doo dealer as soon as possible for
inspection.
Fault Codes
When a fault occurs, a numerical fault
code may be recorded depending on
the fault type and system.
These fault codes are used by au-
thorized Sea-Doo dealers for trou-
bleshooting the watercraft systems
when comparing them to a fault list.
Fault codes can be viewed in the in-
formation center multifunction display
however, this function is only available
if a fault is still active.
If there is an active fault code, it may
be viewed by the operator on the mul-
tifunction display. The operator may
then choose to call his authorized
Sea-Doo dealer to pass on the fault
code. The dealer will then advise the
operator on the steps to take to solve
the problem, or to stop using the wa-
tercraft and to bring it in to the dealer
for repairs.
Displaying Fault Codes
Press the MODE button repeatedly un-
til the FAULT CODE function is visible
in the multifunction display.
Press the SET or the UP/DOWN but-
ton to enter the function and display
the first fault code, then press the
UP/DOWN button repeatedly to dis-
play each subsequent code.
NOTE: When the last fault code has
been displayed and the button is
pressed again, the system loops back
to the first fault code displayed, and all
fault codes can again be displayed. If
there was one active fault code when
entering the FAULT CODE mode, and
it becomes occurred (no longer active),
a NO ACTIVE FAULT CODE message
will scroll in the display.
To exit the FAULT CODE display func-
tion, the MODE or SET button must be
pressed once. There is no time out on
this function.
