Fuses
Fuses protect the snowmobile electrical
system from overloading. If electrical
parts in the snowmobile are not working,
the system may have been overloaded and
caused a blown fuse. Before repairing or
replacing any electrical part, check the
appropriate fuses. If a fuse blows (opens a
circuit), all the parts of the snowmobile
that use that circuit will not work.
Once which fuse to check has been deter-
mined, perform the following steps:
1. Locate the fuse block and remove
the fuse block cover.
NOTE: The fuse block is behind
the coolant overflow bottle.

NOTE: There are spare fuses
beneath the fuse block cover.
2. Remove the suspected fuse.
NOTE: Fuse function descrip-
tions are next to the fuse contacts
in the fuse block.
3. Look through the clear side of the
fuse to see if the element inside is
burned or separated. If it is, the fuse is
blown and should be replaced with a
fuse of the correct amperage rating.
4. Install the fuse block cover and close
the access panel.
Even after replacing a fuse, it may conti-
nue to blow if the cause of the overload is
not determined. If the fuse continues to
blow, take the snowmobile to an autho-
rized Yamaha Snowmobile dealer for ser-
vice. If not under warranty, this service is
at the discretion and expense of the
snowmobile owner.
CAUTION
Connecting cables in reverse (pos-
itive to negative and negative to
positive) can cause serious dam-
age to the electrical system.

WARNING
Always replace a fuse with one hav-
ing the same specified amperage
rating. Using a fuse with a higher
rating can cause severe wire dam-
age and could start a fire.
