ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The electrical system on the gasoline vehicle is 12 volts DC with negative (–) ground to frame, and consists of nine
circuits that are easily identified:
• Starter Circuit
• Generator Circuit
• Engine Ignition Circuit
• Engine Kill Circuit
• Reverse Buzzer Circuit
• Low Oil Warning Light Circuit
• Neutral Lockout Circuit
• Fuel Gauge and Sending Unit Circuit
• Hour Meter Circuit
Recognizing and understanding the function of each of these circuits will help to quickly isolate the source of an
electrical problem. Use the troubleshooting flow charts in the circuit testing section to find the proper test procedure
to correct the electrical problem.
