Fuses
Fuses protect the snowmobile electrical
system from overloading. If electrical
parts in the snowmobile are not working,
the system may have been overloaded and
caused a blown fuse. Before repairing or
replacing any electrical part, check the
appropriate fuses. If a fuse blows (opens a
circuit), all the parts of the snowmobile
that use that circuit will not work.
Once which fuse to check has been deter-
mined, perform the following steps:
1. Remove both access panels and the
hood. Locate the fuse block in front
of the engine.
YM146A
NOTE: There are spare fuses
beneath the fuse block cover.
2. Remove the suspected fuse.
NOTE: Fuse function descriptions
are next to the fuse contacts in the
fuse block.
3. Look through the clear side of the
fuse to see if the element inside is
burned or separated. If it is, the fuse
is blown and should be replaced
with a fuse of the correct amperage
rating.
4. Install the fuse block cover and
install the hood and both access pan-
els.
CAUTION
Before installing the battery, make
sure the ignition switch is in the OFF
position.
CAUTION
Connecting cables in reverse (posi-
tive to negative and negative to posi-
tive) can cause serious damage to
the electrical system.
! WARNING
Always replace a fuse with one hav-
ing the same specified amperage rat-
ing. Using a fuse with a higher rating
can cause severe wire damage and
could start a fire.
