Testing PWC Jet Ski Start stop switches 

I actually was able to recreate the Kawasaki rubber by 3d printing it with flexible filament and its been working great!

This is great . Really appreciate you doing videos like this! Your knowledge is invaluable in keeping these old units running

Awesome advice and good idea on leaving the lanyard on. Especially in those cold northern states

Thanks you! Fixed my problem jusy taking it apart anf putting it back together.

Thank you! Good to know how to put it back together when it explodes after taking it apart :D

Thanks John. Interesting!

Oddly enough, I’ve only ever had an issue with a Yamaha switch. Thanks for the video and I wish I saw this before I had to replace the switch.

This is a great tech tip! I will admit I once overlooked a stuck Yamaha lanyard switch, and replaced a stator.🤦 I now store with with lanyards on.

Thank you John

Great video!!!

Knock on wood -- I've never hard start/stop switch issues, and all my old Kawasakis ('95 750sxi, '87 650sx) are still on their original switches that have likely never been opened. So in essence, I'm well overdue for a switch issue.

On my Superjet i would hit a wave and the engine would die. I replceced the switch assembly and it solved the problem, what is the failure in my switch that would have caused it? Never knew you could take them apart to clean them Thanks...

John - can you share where you can get replacement rubber switch covers for a Kawi from?

Would the switch prevent a spark? And still allow it to turnover ?
