    Getting a new BRP engine

    2 months is a very long time for the shop to have your boat. I have done several long blocks under warranty and it has never taken longer than 3 days to get the new long block from BRP. If they sent the wrong block they would have sent the correct one out next day air. I have one I'm working...

    2015 Scarab 215 won't start

    It would still try to run unless your tank is full of water. How high did the water level get I'm the boat? If you can hear the fuel pumps running then try removing the fuel line from the engine and placing it in a container the cycle key to get a fuel sample. Another possibility is that the...

    2015 Scarab 215 won't start

    There are separate fuel pumps for each engine. If you open the engine hatch and look in front of the engines you will see the gas tank and 2 black round pumps. Have someone turn the ignition switch on for you while obse et bing the fuel pumps. You should here them run for a few seconds when...

    O2 Sensors - Service Bulletin

    The bulletin is due to the catalyst not being properly torqued at the factory. This can potentially cause water leaks internally that can damage the o2 sensors. There is a bulletin to retorque the bolts on the cat. There is also a bulletin that they are extending the warranty coverage on o2...

    How Does the Speedometer on Base 2015 165 Work?

    2018 check engine light at 25 hour mark

    B.R.P. made a change on 2018 and newer models that extended the operating time for break-in. Now your owners manual says break-in inspection should be done at 25 hours instead of 10 hours. They also changed the initial maintenance clock from 25 hours to 50 hours.

    Scarab Fold down wake tower silver boxes

    Those are speaker and light wires. If you look up the side gunnel after removing the port rear seat cushion(the one where the battery switch is )you will see the plugs for the tower speakers.

    Reverse Module Error iST

    I have replace several ist modules this summer due to this issue. Try disconnecting the shift cable from the module and the try shifting. If module shifts fine you will need a new cable. If module still does not shift you will need a new module.

    Flashing check engine light

    Glastrons unfortunately will always flash check engine when the key switch is turned to the run position. This is because the use aftermarket gauges from medallion instead of the brp gauge cluster and this creates 3 can communication error codes.

    Possible lawsuit against Scarab/Glastron/RBH (discussion thread)

    As a certified rotax technician at a Scarab dealership I can tell you that if your having issues with carbon rings, pto seals, driveshaft of impeller splines make sure you have your service center check that the engine is aligned properly. I can say that I personally have found that probably...

    Would you buy a used 2014 215 impulse

    The 215 is more fun than the 195 due to having twin engines. Does the 215 have a ballast system? You can add one but for a price. Make sure you look underneath the 215 in the intake grates and look at the impellers for damage. Overall if the price is right I would go with 2014 215.

    Wiring diagram for LEDs

    @owen87 do you have a stereo in your glove box? I can't remember on the touchscreen models. If so the satellite antenna should plug into it I believe. Open the door on the port side of walk thru and look up.

    Wiring diagram for LEDs

    They use common grounds, not sure if the courtesy lights are on their own ground but not likely. I would recommend using the power wire coming off the switch on the dash, this is how I see other manufacturers put dimmers on them. You can access this under the starboard bow seat back. Unsnap...

    2016 Scarab 215 HOI Wake-Windshield Issues

    I have seen this on several boats both 195 & 215. I would recommend next time at your dealer have them fix it. Sometimes it can be adjusted by the 2 support struts located at the walk thru. Most time the windshield has to be removed and remounted and may require some minor fiberglass repair...
