4. Using the red tester lead, contact each end of the fuse
holder connector terminals individually.
5. The meter must show battery voltage from one side
of the connector terminal ends.
NOTE: Battery voltage will be indicated from only
one side of the fuse holder connector terminal; the
other side will show no voltage.
NOTE: When testing the HI fuse holder, the head-
light dimmer switch must be in the HI position; when
testing the LIGHTS fuse holder, the headlight dimmer
switch can be in either position.
NOTE: If the meter shows no battery voltage, trou-
bleshoot the battery, switches, distribution module,
or the main wiring harness.
FUSES
NOTE: To remove a fuse, compress the locking tabs
on either side of the fuse case and lift out.

1. Set the meter selector to the OHMS position.
2. Connect the red tester lead to one spade end of the
fuse; then connect the black tester lead to the other
spade end.
3. The meter must show less than 1 ohm resistance. If
the meter reads open, replace the fuse.
NOTE: Make sure the fuses are returned to their
proper position according to amperage. Refer to the
fuse block decal for fuse placement.
RELAYS
The 4-pin relays are identical plug-in type. Relay func-
tion can be checked by switching relay positions. The
relays are interchangeable.
NOTE: The module and wiring harness are not a service-
able components and must be replaced as an assembly.
Ignition Coil
NOTE: On the 1000 models, the following proce-
dures should be performed on both ignition coils.
The ignition coil is on the frame above the engine. To access
the coil, the side panel must be removed (see Steer-
ing/Frame/Controls).
RESISTANCE
NOTE: For these tests, the meter selector should be
set to the OHMS position and the primary wire(s)
should be disconnected.
Primary Winding
1. Connect the red tester lead to either terminal; then
connect the black tester lead to the other terminal.
2. The meter reading must be within specification.
Secondary Winding
1. Remove the plug cap from the high tension lead;
then connect the red tester lead to the high tension
lead.
2. Connect the black tester lead to either primary con-
nector.
3. The meter reading must be within specification.
NOTE: If the meter does not show as specified,
replace ignition coil.
Spark Plug Cap
1. Connect the red tester lead to one end of the cap;
then connect the black tester lead to the other end of
the cap.

2. The meter reading must be within specification.
NOTE: If the meter does not read as specified,
replace the spark plug cap.
CAUTION
Always replace a blown fuse with a fuse of the same
type and rating.
CAUTION
Always disconnect the battery when performing resis-
tance tests to avoid damaging the multimeter.
