TROUBLESHOOTING AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
(GASOLINE VEHICLE)
Test Procedures

TEST PROCEDURE 21 – Neutral Lockout Cam
See General Warnings on page 1-2.
Check to be sure the lobes on the cam are pressing the neutral lockout limit switch lever as the Forward/Reverse
handle is being shifted. The limit switch should make an audible click as it is pressed. If it does not, check for wear
on the cam lobes. Be sure the cam has snapped fully back into place. If the cam lobes still do not activate the limit
switch, replace the cam.
TEST PROCEDURE 22 – Battery Test (Under Load)
See General Warnings on page 1-2.
NOTE:
Keep the battery connected while performing this test procedure.
1.
Place the neutral lockout cam in the MAINTENANCE position, put the Forward/Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL
position, and chock the wheels.
2.
Set a multimeter to 20 volts DC and place the red (+) probe on the F2 (white wire) terminal on the starter/generator.
Place the black (–) probe on the negative (–) battery post.
3.
Place battery under load.
3.1. Turn the key switch to the ON position, leave the Forward/Reverse shifter in the NEUTRAL position and
press the accelerator pedal (with the accelerator pedal pressed, the battery is under load).
4.
If the voltage reading is over 9.6 volts, with an electrolyte temperature of 70 °F (21 °C), check the starter/generator.
See following NOTE.
NOTE:
The voltage reading listed is for electrolyte at 70 °F (21 °C). At lower electrolyte temperatures the voltage
reading will be lower.
5.
If the reading is below 9.6 volts, with an electrolyte temperature of 70 °F (21 °C), check the battery.
See Test
Procedure 1 – Battery on page 19-12.
6.
If the reading is zero, there may be no continuity across the large posts of the solenoid.
See Test Procedure
7.
If all of the test results are good and the voltage reading is zero, there may be a broken or damaged 6-gauge
white wire from the solenoid to the starter/generator.
See Test Procedure 8 – Starter/Generator (Starter
TEST PROCEDURE 23 – Fuel Level Sending Unit
See General Warnings on page 1-2.
WARNING
• To avoid the possibility of fire or explosion, make sure the fuel tank cap is securely in place while
performing this test procedure.
1.
Disconnect battery.
See Disconnecting the Battery – Gasoline Vehicles on page 1-3.
2.
Disconnect the orange wire from the center post of the fuel level sending unit.
3.
With a multimeter set to 2 k ohms, place the red (+) probe of the multimeter on the center post of the sending unit.
Place the black (–) probe on the ground connection of the sending unit
