Greetings all,
I recently purchased a Sega Waverunner single machine, and I am not able to get it to work. I fill the machine with a compressor, going to 90 psi, and the air seems to drain pretty fast. The waverunner does not move as it should and there is resistance when going to the left. While I am mostly ignorant of how the underside of the machine works, I can gather the following:
I am getting an E2 drive board error.
Under the test settings the "Left valve" seems to be failing a test.
Wondering if anyone knows that part number or where to locate it on the body so i can replace it? Or any information would be quite helpful. thanks in advance if anyone has any info.

The very first thing you should be doing is obtaining the service manual for that. It's no longer available on the SEGA site (at least I couldn't find it) but I did find it on other sites. A quick Google will reveal interesting leads.
The service manual lists nearly all the available parts and their part numbers as well as theory of operation and servicing details. There's no guarantee that you'll find that specific replacement part short of hitting up eBay but if you're lucky, you can get into the ball park with a substitute part.

that valve probably isnt closing all the way causing the system to leak. try disconnecting a power wire to the valve and see if it seals up. if it does, you have a drive problem. if not, it's the valve.
the manual , or possibly the valve itself, should have some specs on it (voltage, size, etc) you should be able to match it up to something pretty easily.
