．
When the key switch is on position OFF, the multimeter should show an open circuit condition.
6
．
When the key switch is on position ON, the multimeter should show a conducting state.
7
．
If other readings are obtained, replace the key switch. Refer to "Key switch removal" in Chapter 9.
8
．
If the key switch operates as above, install the instrument panel in the reverse sequence of removal
and perform the following operations.
9
．
Check accelerator pedal switch.
NOTE: Before operation, make sure the key switch operates properly and the key switch and the
instrument panel are installed correctly.
9.1 When the battery is connected, use a multimeter set at 200V DC, connect the black (-) probe to
the negative binding post of Battery 6 and connect the red (+) probe to the pedal switch output
wire (Wire 3).
9.2 When the Tow/Run switch is on RUN position, the key switch is ON and Forward/Reverse gear
switch is on NEUTRAL, the voltage reading should be 0V. When the accelerator pedal is
depressed, the voltage reading should be reference voltage (48V, the battery should be fully
charged).
9.3 If the voltage reading is 0V when the accelerator pedal is depressed, check the pedal switch
circuit in the following procedures.
9.3.1 Use a multimeter set at 200V DC, connect the black (-) probe to the negative binding post
of Battery 6 and connect the red (+) probe to the pedal switch output wire (Wire 1). Turn
on the key switch, the reading should be around 48V (the battery is fully charged).
9.3.2 If the reading is 0V, check the red wire between the key switch and the accelerator for
continuity, if it is ok, check the accelerator pedal switch for continuity. If the continuity of
pedal switch is checked with an unsatisfactory result, replace the accelerator.
