Speed Sensor
NOTE: Prior to testing the speed sensor, inspect
the three-wire connector on the speed sensor for
contamination, broken pins, and/or corrosion.
1. Set the meter selector to the DC Voltage position.
2. With appropriate needle adapters on the meter
leads, connect the red tester lead to the voltage
lead (V); then connect the black tester lead to the
ground lead (G).

3. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
4. The meter must show 6-12 DC volts.
5. Leave the black tester lead connected; then con-
nect the red tester lead to the signal lead (S) pin.
6. Slowly move the ATV forward or backward; the
meter must show 0 and 6-12 DC volts alternately.
NOTE: If the sensor tests are within specifica-
tions, the speedometer must be replaced (see Sec-
tion 9).
To replace a speed sensor, use the following proce-
dure.
1. Disconnect the three-wire connector from the
speed sensor harness or from the speed sensor;
then remove the Allen-head cap screw securing
the sensor to the sensor housing.
2. Remove the sensor from the sensor housing
accounting for an O-ring.
3. Install the new speed sensor into the housing with
new O-ring lightly coated with multi-purpose
grease; then secure the sensor with the Allen-head
cap screw (threads coated with blue Loctite #242).
Tighten securely.

Ignition Switch
The ignition switch harness connects to the switch
with a four-pin connector. To access the connector,
remove the ignition switch nut, remove the switch, and
press the connector release tab. Pull the connector
from the switch.

VOLTAGE
NOTE: Perform this test on the harness connector.
1. Set the meter selector to the DC Voltage position.
2. Connect the red meter lead to either red wire; then
connect the black meter lead to ground.
3. Meter must show battery voltage.
