Reverse Shift Actuator Will Not Turn To The Neutral Position When The Reverse Shift Switch Is Pushed To "Off" - Honda GL1800 Service Manual

STARTER/REVERSE SYSTEM
Reverse shift actuator will not turn to the neutral position when the reverse shift switch is pushed to
"OFF"
1. Neutral Indicator Operation Inspection
Turn the ignition switch to "OFF" and push the reverse shift switch to "OFF."
Turn the ignition switch to "ON" and check that the reverse shift actuator turns to the neutral posi-
tion and the neutral indicator comes on.
Does the neutral indicator come on?
YES
NO
2. Reverse Actuator Operation Inspection - Reverse Position
Turn the ignition switch to "OFF" and remove
the center inner fairing (page 2-10).
Return the reverse shift actuator to the neutral
position by turning the pulley clockwise using a
22 mm wrench.
If the pulley cannot be turned, check the reverse
shift actuator (page 19-36). If the actuator is OK,
check the reverse shift mechanism (page 19-42).
Turn the ignition switch to "ON" and push the
reverse shift switch to "ON" position.
Check that the reverse actuator turns to the
reverse position and the reverse indicator comes
on.
Does the reverse actuator turn to the reverse
position and the reverse indicator light come
on?
NO
YES
3. Reverse Shift Relay 3 Coil Control Line Continuity Inspection
Check the reverse shift relay 3 coil (No. 27) circuit at the cruise/reverse control module (page 19-39).
Is continuity correct?
NO
YES
4. Reverse Shift Relay 2 Coil Control Line Continuity Inspection
Check the reverse shift relay 2 coil (No. 34) circuit at the cruise/reverse control module (page 19-39).
Is continuity correct?
NO
YES
