TEST PROCEDURE 18 – Engine Kill Wire
See General Warning on page 1-1.
1.
Disconnect battery and spark plug wire(s).
See Disconnecting the Battery – Gasoline Vehicles, Section
2.
Disconnect white/black wire bullet connector located at the engine RPM limiter
.
3.
Connect red (+) probe of multimeter to the male bullet terminal on the white/black wire and connect the black
(–) probe to the vehicle frame.
4.
Turn the key switch ON, place the Forward/Reverse handle in FORWARD, and press the accelerator pedal.
There should be no continuity. If there is continuity, check for worn insulation on the white/black wire that may be
allowing the engine kill wire to ground to the frame.
TEST PROCEDURE 19 – Reverse Buzzer Limit Switch
See General Warning on page 1-1.
NOTE:
Keep the battery connected while performing this test procedure.
The reverse buzzer limit switch is located on the Forward/Reverse shifter; red/white and orange wires are connected to
it.
1.
Place the Forward/Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL position and the neutral lockout switch in the MAINTENANCE
position. Chock the wheels.
2.
Move the Forward/Reverse handle 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.
3.
If the switch is being activated but the buzzer does not function, place the red (+) probe of the multimeter on one
terminal and the black (–) probe on the other terminal of the limit switch. Without the lever pressed, the reading
should be no continuity. Press the lever and the reading should be continuity. If either reading is incorrect, replace
limit switch.
See Reverse Buzzer Limit Switch Removal on page 14-21.
TEST PROCEDURE 20 – Reverse Buzzer

See Disconnecting the Battery – Gasoline Vehicles, Section
2.
To test the front reverse buzzer, remove center dash panel.
See Key Switch Removal on page 13-17.
3.
Check for proper wiring and tight connections. Using a multimeter, individually check for continuity through each
wire that connects to the reverse buzzer.
See Wiring Diagram on page 12-6.
If the buzzer will not function
when properly wired, replace the buzzer.
