Before replacing any electric or electronic part(s),
always check electrical connections. Make sure
that they are very tight and they make good con-
tact and that they are corrosion-free. The voltage
and current might be too weak to go through dirty
wire pins. Check carefully if posts show signs of
moisture, corrosion or if they look dull. Clean pins
properly and then coat them with silicon-based di-
electric grease or other appropriate lubricant (ex-
cept if otherwise specified) when reassembling
them. See connectors information below.
IMPORTANT:
In usual electric circuit, the battery
supplies a switch which then supplies the electric
consumer. Therefore the switch opens and closes
the positive side of the circuit. Take this into ac-
count when troubleshooting the electrical system.
Pay attention to grounding wires.
Checking for Shorts Between 2 Wires
When checking continuity of a wire in a circuit,
wires should be checked for short circuit as fol-
lows.
Make sure to isolate circuit wires by unplugging
connectors.
Let’s suppose that the circuit to be checked has a
RED and a BLACK wire. Using an ohmmeter, mea-
sure the resistance between the RED and the
BLACK wire. The resistance should be infinite
(0 L). Otherwise, there is a short circuit between
both wires. We must therefore identify and cor-
rect the fault.
FUSES LOCATION
If a fuse is damaged, replace it by one of the same
rating.
CAUTION:
Do not use a higher rated fuse as this
can cause severe damage.
Fuses are located under seat, between engine and
air box.
1. Fan (15 A)
2. Main (25 A)
