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.

XM124A



NOTE: There are spare fuses

beneath the fuse block cover.

2. Remove the suspected fuse.



NOTE: Fuse function descriptions

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 con-

tinue 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.

Brake System

Yamaha recommends that the brake sys-

tem (brake lever, fluid reservoir, hose,

caliper, pads, and brake disc) be checked

daily for fluid leakage, wear, or damage

and for proper operation. Also, the brake

fluid level must be checked every time

before starting the engine.

CAUTION

Connecting cables in reverse (posi-
tive to negative and negative to posi-
tive) can cause serious damage to
the electrical system.

! WARNING

Always replace a fuse with one having
the same specified amperage rating.
Using a fuse with a higher rating can
cause severe wire damage and could
start a fire.
