As described in the Overview, an Active fault means the problem is present now, and an Stored
fault means it has happened some time in the past.
Step #2 - Fix any Active Faults
Look in the table for any Active faults. The underlying problem causing these faults must be
fixed. Refer to the Diagnostic Procedures section of the Service Manual for the watercraft for
instructions related to troubleshooting problems related to the component(s) indicated by the fault.
Step #3- Analyze the Stored Faults
Understanding Stored Faults can be tricky. While transient problems (those that happen briefly and
then go away) will log an occurred fault, not all faults are stored by the system, so when you shut
off the watercraft, the fault is lost. Additionally, if faults have not been cleared for quite awhile, you
may not have a good indication if an stored fault in the table is still a problem. Additionally, the
Kawasaki ECU will not trigger a fault for many components unless the engine is running.
For example, you or a customer may notice a fault occur while running the watercraft. Let's say the
Exhaust Temperature Sensor has a bad connector that randomly disconnects. The watercraft may
signal a fault, but this particular fault is not stored. It will show Stored while the watercraft is
running, but when you shut it off and restart, it may not be present if the connection is OK when you
start.
For some Stored Faults, sometimes you need to clear the fault, and run the watercraft again to see
if it is a current issue.
