New to the forum and would appreciate any help you can give to my situation.
I have a 01 Supra Launch. I have owned for 8 years now maintained by the dealer since I have owned it. I added perfect pass 7 years ago.
Last year on my last trip before winter, the throttle cable broke. I had it replaced and winterized. Since then, I have tried to use it twice. In both cases, I made it about 100 feet from the no wake zone. Gave the boat throttle and the whole boat goes completely dead. Like nothing works, radio everything dead. I replaced the perko switch and rewired from the batteries to the engine for both the positive and negative wires. I took it out again this last weekend hoping I had fixed it and same deal! Had to get towed back to the boat launch. After sitting a while and turning the perko on and off, power does come back.
Any ideas? Could it be a safety thing where my oil pump is bad? Saw something about that on one of the forums?
Thanks again for any help you can provide!
My family and I love this boat and would love to use it again.
