ELECTRICAL SERVICE NOTES

Keep the following notes in mind when diagnosing an electrical
problem.
• Refer to wiring diagram for stator and electrical
component resistance specifications.
• When measuring resistance of a component that has a
low resistance value (under 10 Ohms), remember to
subtract meter lead resistance from the reading. Connect
the leads together and record the resistance. The
resistance of the component is equal to tested value
minus the lead resistance.
• Become familiar with the operation of your meter. Be
sure leads are in the proper jack for the test being
performed (i.e. 10A jack for current readings). Refer to
the Owner's manual included with your meter for more
information.
• Voltage, amperage, and resistance values included in this
manual are obtained with a Fluke™ 77 Digital
Multimeter (PV-43568). This meter is acceptable for use
when diagnosing electrical problems. Readings obtained
with other meters may differ.
• Pay attention to the prefix on the multimeter reading (K,
M, etc.) and the position of the decimal point.
• For resistance readings, isolate the component to be
tested. Disconnect it from the wiring harness or power
supply.

FUSE SPLICE SAVER

The fuse splice saver is near the battery under the front storage
compartment.
NOTE: Use only the recommended fuse capacity, as use
of a higher amperage fuse to correct blown-fuse
situations could lead to electrical component damage.

Fusible Link

A fusible link is installed on the battery voltage circuit that
supplies power to the main 15A fuse. The link is located at the
starter motor solenoid + post.
Fusible Link PN: 2202607
Always replace a blown fusible link with a new link. Never use
a piece of wire or metal in place of the link.
