on the (M-) terminal. With the key switch turned OFF, the reading should be continuity. With the key
switch turned ON, the reading should be no continuity. If either reading is incorrect, replace the key
switch.
Test Procedure 17 - Fuse:
The fuse (red 10 amp) is located in the electrical component box (See Removing the Fuse, Page 120).
1. Place the neutral lock-out cam in the SERVICE position, put the forward and reverse lever in the NEU-
TRAL position, and chock the wheels.
2. Remove the cover on the electrical component box.
3. Check that wires are connected correctly and are tight. If they are not, rewire or tighten as necessary.
4. Remove the fuse. Using a multimeter set on ohms (
Ω
), place the red (+) probe on one fuse terminal
and the black (-) probe on the other fuse terminal. The reading should be continuity. If the reading is
incorrect, determine what caused the fuse to blow and replace it with a new one of proper load rating.
Test Procedure 18 - Reverse Buzzer Limit Switch:
Limit switch is located on the forward and reverse assembly; red/white and orange wires are connected to it
(Figure 12-7, Page 86).
1. Place the neutral lock-out cam in the SERVICE position, put the forward and reverse lever in the NEU-
TRAL position, and chock the wheels.
2. If buzzer does not function and engine also does not start, see Testing the Vehicle Battery, Page 87.
3. If the engine will start but the reverse buzzer does not function, move the forward and reverse lever to
reverse and listen for an audible “click” from the limit switch. If there is no “click”, check the switch for
proper alignment and switch arm movement.
4. If the switch is being activated but the buzzer does not function, place the red (+) probe of the multime-
ter on one terminal and the black(-) probe on the other terminal of the limit switch. Without the lever
depressed, the reading should be no continuity. Depress the lever and the reading should be continuity.
If either reading is incorrect, replace the limit switch.
Test Procedure 19 - Reverse Buzzer:
1. Place the neutral lock-out cam in the SERVICE position, put the forward and reverse lever in the NEU-
TRAL position, and chock the wheels.
2. Remove the center dash assembly (See Removing the Reverse Warning Buzzer, Page 124).
3. Check for proper wiring and tight connections. Using a multimeter, check for continuity through each
wire that connects to the reverse buzzer (See Figure 12-7, Page 86). If the buzzer will not function
when properly wired, replace the buzzer.
Test Procedure 20 - Oil Sending Unit:
1. Place the neutral lock-out cam in the SERVICE position, put the forward and reverse lever in the NEU-
TRAL position, and chock the wheels.
2. Check that the wire is connected correctly and is tight. If it is not, rewire or tighten as necessary (Fig-
ure 12-8, Page 86).
3. Disconnect the wire from the cord connector on the back of the engine that goes to the oil sending unit.
Using an alligator clip jumper wire, connect the wire to the frame. Turn the key switch ON, closing the
circuit. The oil light should illuminate. If not, check the yellow wire for continuity. If there is no continuity,
replace the wire. If the wire tests okay then check the oil light (See Test Procedure 21). If the oil light
does illuminate with the jumper wire, the oil sending unit needs to be replaced (See Crankcase Cover
Removal, Section 13, Page 13-24 in the Maintenance and Service Manual).
Test Procedure 21 - Oil Warning Light:
1. Place the neutral lock-out cam in the SERVICE position, put the forward and reverse lever in the NEU-
TRAL position, and chock the wheels.
2. Remove the center dash assembly (See Removing the Oil Warning Light, Page 125).
