CAUTION
Do not repair faulty fuses.
Never use fuses different from the rec-
ommended ones.
The use of unsuitable fuses may cause
damages to the electric system or, in
case of short circuit, even a fire.
NOTE
If a fuse blows frequently, there
probably is a short circuit or an overload in
the electric system.
In this case it is advisable to consult an
aprilia Official Dealer.
If an electric component does not work or
works irregularly, or if the vehicle fails to
start, it is necessary to check the fuses.
Check first the 15A secondary fuses and
then the 30A primary fuses.
For the check, proceed as follows:
◆
Turn the ignition switch to position “
1
”,
to avoid any accidental short circuit.
◆
Loosen the screw (1).
◆
Move the safety clip (2).
◆
Open the cover of the box (3) containing
the secondary fuses.
◆
Extract the fuses one by one and check if
the filament (4) is broken.
◆
Before replacing a fuse, try to find out the
cause of the trouble, if possible.
◆
Replace the damaged fuse with a new
one having the same amperage.
NOTE
If you use one of the spare fuses,
put a new fuse in the proper seat.
◆
Remove the rider saddle, see p. 76 (RE-
MOVING THE RIDER SADDLE).
◆
Carry out the operations previously de-
scribed for the secondary fuses also for
the main fuses.
NOTE
The removal of the 30A fuses re-
quires the setting to zero of the following
functions: digital clock and red line setting.
To reset these functions, see p. 20 (MUL-
TIFUNCTION COMPUTER).
