CHANGING THE FUSE
Carefully read p. 35 (MAINTENANCE).
Do not repair faulty fuses.
Never use fuses different from
the recommended ones.
The use of unsuitable fuses may cause
damages to the electric system or, in
case of short circuit, even a fire.
If a fuse blows frequently, there
probably is a short circuit or an
overload in the electric system.
In this case it is advisable to consult an
aprilia Official Dealer.
If an electric component does not work or
works irregularly, or if the vehicle fails to
start, it is necessary to check the fuse (1).
For the checking, proceed as follows:
◆
Turn the ignition switch to position ≈

∆ ,
to avoid any accidental short circuit.
◆
Remove the inspection cover, see p. 52
(REMOVING THE INSPECTION COV-
ER).
◆
Extract the fuse (1) and check if the fila-
ment (2) is broken.
◆
Before replacing the fuse, try to find out
the cause of the trouble, if possible.
◆
Then replace the damaged fuse with the
spare fuse (3) or with a new one having
the same amperage.
If you use one of the spare fuse
(3), put a new fuse in the suitable
seat.
