VOLTAGE (Wiring Harness Side)
1. Set the meter selector to the DC Voltage position.
2. Connect the red tester to the orange wire; then
connect the black tester lead to the red/blue wire.
FI510
3. The meter must show battery voltage.
NOTE: If the meter shows no battery voltage, trouble-
shoot the battery, fuse, switch, or the main wiring harness.
NOTE: If the meter shows battery voltage, the main
wiring
harness
is
good;
proceed
to
test
the
switch/component, the connector, and the switch wir-
ing harness for resistance.
RESISTANCE (Switch Connector)
1. Set the meter selector to the OHMS position.
2. Connect the red tester lead to one black wire; then
connect the black tester lead to the other black wire.
FI502
3. When the brake pedal is depressed, the meter must
show less than 1 ohm.
NOTE: If the meter shows more than 1 ohm of resis-
tance, replace the switch.
Brakelight Switch
(Handlebar Control)
To access the connector, remove the access panel.
NOTE: The ignition switch must be in the ON position.
VOLTAGE
(Wiring Harness Connector)
1. Set the meter selector to the DC Voltage position.
2. Connect the red tester lead to the orange wire; then
connect the black tester lead to the red/blue wire.

3. The meter must show battery voltage.
NOTE: If the meter shows no battery voltage, trouble-
shoot the battery, fuse, switch, or the main wiring harness.
NOTE: If the meter shows battery voltage, the main
wiring

the
switch/component, the connector, and the switch wir-
ing harness for resistance.
RESISTANCE (Switch Connector)
NOTE: The brake lever must be compressed for this
test. Also, the ignition switch must be in the OFF position.
1. Set the meter selector to the OHMS position.
2. Connect the red tester lead to one black wire; then
connect the black tester lead to the other black wire.

3. When the lever is compressed, the meter must
show less than 1 ohm.
NOTE: If the meter shows more than 1 ohm of resis-
tance, replace the switch.
