How to remove and replace IBR Sea-Doo GTX (2010-2015)

SeaDoo won't go into forward or reverse and the IBR light comes on. In this video I'll show you how to diagnose and replace a bad IBR Actuator (Intelligent Brake & Reverse)

Ahoy skipper!
Today we're replacing the IBR Motor on my 2012 Sea-Doo GTX

I’m Chris and I starting A mobile jetski repair business in 2012 after being laid off from my job as an engineering assistant at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute.

My business Cape Cod Jet Sports services and maintains around 100 personal watercraft for clients at their home, dock or marina

Making videos is my hobby 📸

My mission with this channel is to give JetSki owners & marine mechanics all the info you need to maintain, diagnose and repair your PWC and have a good time doin it!

I know its a pain to have to drag your ski to the dealer, wait a month, pay a ton of money and then take another half a day or more out of your busy schedule to go back down and pick it up.
If you’re local to Cape Cod and need service I’m available.

Thanks for watching 😎👍

Great video. Just in time to replace my own, looking forward to the ride plate video as I have a leak where the connectors join the plate. Thank you!

Great video. I just replaced my ibr on my 2013 GTI 130S. I had the ibr rebuilt. Did you installed a brand new IBR?

Ibr Buds programming? What more bs to purchase just like the automobile industry!! $3000 later with automobile tablet hardware and software plus multi Dollars in service auto repair subscriptions before your average diyer can repair his own vehicle!! This seems like a brief indication of similar things one can encounter repairing his own equipment? As simple as it seems more bs!!
