Greetings,

Does anyone know what the correct service manual is for a 2016 242 Limited S (NOT E-series)?

I ordered LIT-18616-03-67 per the Yamaha Pub site and I received the E-series service manual (pic attached). The part # matches up but it really covers only the E-series (for example, has nothing about the manual start keys, only push button start, etc.).

I'm thinking I should have received LIT-18616-03-56.

Any help is appreciated.

I am looking for the same manual as well.... I cant even find the PDF of the owners manual. I did find the online version, but it cannot be downloaded. LIT-18626-11-06

Yamaha employs the best blocks to keep anyone from sharing pdf's of their manuals. Likewise, their online Owner's Manuals cannot be downloaded or printed. Additionally, their jet boat sales brochures are removed from the internet after a few years (not sure why, since they are free).

Not sure that the LIT-18616-03-56 is really what you want either ?? Here is a picture of mine. The way I read the cover it applies to 2015-2018 AR240 and SX240 BUT only applies to 2015 Limited / S ? I didn't think there were any changes between 2015 and 2016 to what was then the "new" 24' boats but just going by what it says ?

@n_ikkon & @WiskyDan , thanks for your interest. I'm trying to give @Tampa_Mark a couple days to reply ? I would like to have the manual he got for the E Series boat in exchange for the one I have for the Limited non E series ? I have sent him a pm in addition to this post. He has not yet replied to either ? That would save me $75 if he is interested. If no reply by the weekend , I will reach out to you guys.

If anyone wants to (in their spare time) create a PDF version of the E-Series manual, I'm ALL IN for it. I really want a version of it.

Thanks Lee. I was actually looking for the Service Manual but I'm happy to have this electronic version on my hard drive.

Semper Fi.

Sorry Ya'll, I didn't pay close enough attention and did the Owners Manual. If i could get my hands on a paper copy of the Service Manual I could do the same thing and get it out electronically.

Anyone want to sacrifice a paper one and I'll convert it into a PDF and post electronically let me know.

Thanks
