TEST PROCEDURE 5 – ACCELERATOR PEDAL LIMIT SWITCH
See General Warning, Section 10, Page 10-1.
The accelerator pedal limit switch is the top switch located in the electrical component box. There is an 18-
gauge green wire and an 18-gauge orange wire connected to this limit switch.
1. Disconnect the battery cables as instructed. See WARNING “To avoid unintentionally starting...” in
General Warning, Section 10, Page 10-1.
2. Check for proper wiring and tight connections (Figure 11-1, Page 11-6) .
3. Set the multimeter to 200 (ohms). Place the red (+) probe on the common (COM) terminal (green wire)
of the limit switch and place the black (–) probe on the normally closed (NC) terminal (orange wire) of the
limit switch.
4. Make sure the battery is disconnected. With the key switch in the OFF position, the Forward/Reverse
handle in NEUTRAL, and the accelerator pedal in the UP position, the reading should be no continuity.
With the accelerator pedal pressed, the reading should be continuity. If readings are incorrect, replace
the switch.
TEST PROCEDURE 6 – SOLENOID
See General Warning, Section 10, Page 10-1.
1. Disconnect the battery cables as instructed. See WARNING “To avoid unintentionally starting...” in
General Warning, Section 10, Page 10-1.
2. Remove the electrical component box cover.
3. Ensure that the wires are connected correctly and are tight. If they are not, rewire or tighten as necessary.
4. Set a multimeter to 200 (ohms). Place the red (+) probe on one of the small posts of the solenoid and
place the black (–) probe on the other small post. The reading should be 14 to16 (ohms). If the reading
is not within limits, replace the solenoid.
