    Relay problems I think

    OK so we had 30+ kids out to the lake today. We load 14 up to go tubing Yellow_Flash_Colorz: . We get the first crew out there and I start pulling them. Everything is perfect, we go about 1/4 mile and one falls off. I reduce the power to almost idle and she dies. I got to restart it and NOTHING. The dash will not light up and there is nothering when i hit the start button. Now everything else works ( radio, lights. pumps) but no dash and no start. I fell under the dash and the ignition fuse is out. I try to push it back in and it will not reset. I ger pulled in and keep tring to reset it to no avail. Well I let it be and just play in the water with the kids for the rest of the day. I get it into my shop and it keeps doing the same thing. So I decided to pull out the relays for the fuel pump and ignition and swap them. They are the same rating, so I thought what the heck. Well when I swaped them I go back to the front and the breaker will reset. I then hit the start and I hear the fuel pumps come on, ( getting excited at this point) then I hit the starter and it starts.


    OK here is my delima, It starts EVERYTIME now, so I can't recreate the problem for the dealer. Should I just go ahead and put 2 new relays in it? It only has 14hrs on it and the dealer is about 2hrs away. I'm woried about going out again and getting stuck with the same problems.

    PLANETNAUTIQUE WHAT SHOULD I DO???? Its great that it will start but I have lost some confidence in it for now.

    thanks
