| My fricking power steering just went out on boat Posted by redneck It's pretty much a brand new boat, only 75 hours and was serviced 20 hours ago. It will turn right but when I turn the wheel left it just spins freely, the engine doesn't move, wtf is wrong? I hate boats right now on 4/7 at 7:24 amReply • Back to Top |
I told you yesterday you needed to bring more beer  But that sucks Reply • Back to Top |
| We screwed. Boat still on the lift luckily. But we can't find the problem and yamaha customer service isn't open... Or at least the number we tried. Reply • Back to Top |

| I really don't know anything about "power" steering, is that hydraulic? If so, if the turning movement is controlled by two instead of one piston you might have leaked fluid in left one. Good luck. Reply • Back to Top |
| I meant Hydraulic, putting power in a rage post, It turned fine to the right but the left is just a free spin of the wheel Reply • Back to Top |
| Start looking for a leak. Rule that Out first. Keep turning the wheel back and forth to see where it might be coming out. Reply • Back to Top |
| It's leaking in the center console, don't know how to fix Reply • Back to Top |

| It can't be a sealed console, huh? It's usually a beyotch, but a small person can usually squeeze into the area. If it's a seal, you're screwed, if it's a fitting, tighten it. If you can't get to it, put fluid into it, if it works then buy a lot and bring rags. Bring your cellphone with you too.  Reply • Back to Top |
| Get somebody to snake their arse down there and find if it's a fitting or a busted line or whatever. You should be able to find where it's leaking. Reply • Back to Top |
| It's a seal Reply • Back to Top |
