Flooded Engine (drowned mode)
If engine is fuel-flooded and does not start, this
special mode can be activated to prevent fuel in-
jection and ignition while cranking. Proceed as fol-
lows to activate it.
With safety lanyard on its post while engine is
stopped, press and HOLD throttle lever.
Press the start/stop button. The mode is now on.
Releasing throttle lever will bring back to its nor-
mal mode.
If engine does not start, it may be necessary to
remove spark plugs and crank engine with rags
over spark plug holes. Refer to COMPONENT IN-
SPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT subsection.
If engine is water-flooded, refer to WATER
FLOODED ENGINE in MAINTENANCE section.
Limp Home Modes
Besides the signals as seen above, the EMS ECU
may automatically set default parameters to the
engine management to ensure the adequate op-
eration of the watercraft if a component of the fuel
injection system is not operating properly.
The following components failure will trigger a
limp home mode: CTS, EGT, OPS, OSPS and
TOPS.
When minor fault occurs, the fault and message/
beeper will disappear automatically, if the condi-
tion does not exist anymore.
Releasing throttle and letting the engine returning
at idle speed may allow normal operation to come
back. If it does not work, try removing and rein-
stalling the safety lanyard on its post.
Depending on the malfunction, the watercraft
speed may be reduced and not allowed to reach
its usual top speed. The engine speed will be lim-
ited to 2500 or 5000 RPM.
These performance-reduced modes allow the rid-
er to go back home which would not be possible
without this advanced system. Refer to the DIAG-
NOSTIC PROCEDURES for a complete chart.
If a fault occurs and involves a limp home mode
operation, the engine management system will re-
duce engine RPM gradually to the proper level.
Diagnostic Mode
The malfunctions are recorded in the memory of
the EMS ECU. The memory of the EMS ECU can
be checked using the VCK (Vehicle Communica-
tion Kit) (P/N 529 035 844) to see the fault codes.
The EMS ECU and the VCK are able to communi-
cate through a connector on the vehicle. Refer to
t h e D IA GN OS T I C P R O C E D U R E S s e c t io n .
B.U.D.S. Version 1.1 and up must be used for this
system.
WARNING
When disconnecting coil from spark plug, al-
ways disconnect coil from main harness first.
Never check for engine ignition spark from an
open coil and/or spark plug in the engine
compartment as spark may cause fuel vapor
to ignite.
