96 GTI,charging system

[Gary H NC]

Replaced dead batteries on this seadoo and decided to check the voltage with my meter.Same voltage running as it is with the engine off. 12.9 volts
The manual states to check the fuse for the charging system.
Is it in the electronic box? I tried to get the box out without any luck.
Funny the manual says nothing on fuse location.

the electronics box is kind of a pain to get out. There is a clip on the base on the front and the rear of the box. its almost like you need a third long hand. once you unclip the box there is plenty of slack to move the box out. it comes out towards the seat opening. youll need to remove the battery for a little more clearance.

Thanks Rob, Wish i would have known before putting the batteries in...
I'll pull the one battery back out and give it a shot.
How likely is it that the fuse is bad? Or could the charging system be the most common cause?
