I have a 1996 (or maybe 98) Yamaha Waverunner XL1200. Ran no problems 3 months ago. I winterized it, trailered it 90 miles, and now I have no electrical power. Yes, fresh and well charged battery (the battery will fire up our other PWCs perfectly), and good and clean battery connections. Fuse in the what I assume is the CDI/Coil box is fine.

My next thought was a defective kill switch.

I have no wiring diagram. Does anyone know the wires to cross coming out of the steering column harness to bypass the kill switch? I am trying to diagnose where the power failure is occurring and I assume a bad connection since it had no problems until trailered.

Thanks.

We all know this crap is supposedly everywhere, and some are going to go have fun anyway. That's fine. All I ask is everyone use your best judgement, stay safe, and keep others safe, oh, and keep lots of hand sanitizer or high proof rubbing alcohol on hand when around anything that someone else...
