I’m a new ls2000 2003 owner.
When I winterized last fall I forgot to take a picture of the connections and think I hooked it up wrong last weekend.
I wasn’t sure about the accessory cables and connected them (it) to positive.
The accessories won’t work but the engines start. Did I do some major damage?
I’m new to jet boats......
 
It should be red wires to positive, black wires to negative. The accessories should have two wires, black n red. Welcome aboard captian

Are u an O's fan
 
Yes, big O’s fan for 50 years.

Could I have blown fuses hooking up backwards?
 
There should be an inline fuse on the red wire for accessories, check there first. it may have popped the reset buttons on the dash also.

I'm located in Ellicott City, Md. big o's fan just hard to watch these days.
 
Thanks for the info.
Will check it out next weekend. I just hope I didn’t already do some serious damage.

O’s Finally got one on the Sox!
