Check that there are no nuts and bolts loose.ħ. Lubricate all moving parts with the Lithium grease. Make sure your reverse bucket is in good operation. Check the carrier ring for a nice smooth surface.Ħ. Looking for any signs of wear and corrosion.ĥ. Lithium is good here, but will eventually wear off while riding.Ĥ. Where applicable, lubricate bushings and moving parts for the winter. Try to move it side to side at the bushings, to see if they are becoming worn.ģ. Make sure all is tight and in good working order. Look at the steering nozzle bushings and fasteners. So, don’t rely on it to last more than a week.Ģ. WD-40, although a good lubricant, will run off the components you are trying to protect. It holds up well with winter and moisture. I use Lithium grease on most of my metal to metal moving parts. You should check your steering cable for ease of movement. When the off season is here, this is the perfect time to get our parts fixed, that we broke through the summer months and to do our yearly maintenance required in our shop manuals.ġ. We have had a lot of request about getting our skis ready for the winter months, which are just around the corner for a few and not till about December for others (Florida, Texas and other areas of the Gulf Coast).

Note that the specs above were found online so may have errors.Īlways refer to the oem service manual if you’re not sure of a procedure.Here is information from the forum on everything you ever wanted to know about winterizing a 4-tec engine The motor should draw 1.7A when running and 3.8A peak. Green/orange to blue/orange = 0 ohms in both directions. With VTS in middle position the resistance should be between 24.3 and 171.3 ohms (goes in steps of 14.7 ohms). Green/white to black wire = 4 m ohm or infinite, depending on polarity.īlue/white to green white = 4 m ohm or infinite, depending on polarity.īrown /white brown/black = 24.3 ohm (+/- 20%) with VTS down / 171.3 ohm with VTS up. Purple/white to red = infinite resistance in both directions.īlue/white to black wire = 32 k ohm in both directions.

You should be able to see the change in resistance when the trim reaches full up or full down. It should read about 5K to 6K (K=1000) if the trim is in the full up or full down position. Purple/white to black wire = 10 k ohm in both directions when the trim is in the middle point or with the sliding shaft removed. Less than 10K and you’re going to need a new module. If it is between 1 Meg and 10K ohm, you may be able to use the VTS box but it has begun to fail and will be running down your battery. Red/purple to black wire = infinite resistance in both directions. To perform the tests, you’ll need to disconnect all cables going to the VTS and follow the procedures below. Note the trim unit does not have to be removed from the boat for these tests. This is a test for the wires going INTO the VTS module.

I’ve found the procedures below handy in troubleshooting various VTS problems.Īlso, if you find your VTS boot is leaking or even if it isn’t and you still have the old gear clamps, I sell a Boot Update Kit that will fix any future leakage problems.
If you get a “click” but no up/down, that’s usually a blown 7.5A VTS fuse and you would need to know why it blew. Also, before testing make sure the VTS 7.5A fuse (in MPEM or Coil Box) is ok. Before testing the wiring, pull the cover off the vts to insure there isn’t moisture/corrosion in the box.
Due to the metal clamps they put on the vts boot, a common problem is the boot failing and allowing water into the module.
The following procedures test the Thru-Hull VTS Unit that incorporates the motor and is found on most all 1995-2004 models that had electric trim.
