WIRE COLOR
FUNCTIONS AND VALUES
A
RED/WHITE
Battery voltage (around 12 V DC).
B
BROWN
Ground. Should show continuity to ignition coil core and engine.
C
BLACK
Engine stop. Test with engine idling.
200 or 250 Watt alternator: 6 - 12 V DC.
150 Watt alternator: more than 10 V AC.
Some 150 W alternators have high voltage on this wire
Shorting C to B should stop engine.
D
YELLOW/RED
Alternator signal. Test with engine idling. More than 3 V AC.
0 V DC.
E
BROWN/WHITE
AWD hub coil ground. With AWD switch on, and transmission in
either (A) Reverse with override button pushed or (B) Forward:
around 12 V DC. Measured current from E to B should be around
1 Amp DC, and the AWD lamp should light.
F
GRAY/ORANGE
Reverse signal. With transmission in reverse: around 12 V DC.
Should go to 0 V DC when the override button is pushed.
WARNING
All tests done with key and engine stop switch “ON”. All voltages are with reference to pin B (ground). Polaris
probe kit #2201209 will help in measurements but is not necessary if care is used when probing the connectors.
