Electrical Resistance Tests (5000/9000); Electrical Resistance Tests (7000) - Arctic Cat Pantera 3000 Service Manual

Electrical Resistance Tests
(5000/9000)
NOTE: Replace any component that does not have a

test value within specifications. If the component tests
satisfactorily but is suspected to be faulty, connect the
red meter lead to a component lead and the black
meter lead to ground. Check for continuity between
the component and ground. If continuity is observed,
replace the component.
NOTE: The following test should be made using

MaxiClips and the Fluke Model 77 Multimeter set to
OHMS scale.
CAUTION
Always disconnect the battery when performing resis-
tance tests to avoid damaging the multimeter.
Magneto Coil
1. Disconnect the white three-yellow-wire connector.
2. Connect the red meter lead to one yellow wire; then
connect the black meter lead to another yellow wire
(a total of three tests).
3. Resistance must be 0.2-0.4 ohm.
Crankshaft Position Sensor
1. Disconnect the sensor.
2. Connect the red meter lead to the blue/white wire;
then connect the black meter lead to the green/white
wire.
3. Resistance must be 173-211 ohms.
Ignition Coil
1. Disconnect an ignition coil connector.
2. Connect the red meter lead to the red/green wire;
then connect the black meter lead to the gray/green
(coil 1) or brown/green (coil 2) wire.
3. Resistance must be 1.4 ohms.
Injection Coil
1. Test between the black/yellow and black wires from
the injection coil.
2. Resistance must be 3.6 ohms.
Fuel Injector
1. Disconnect the fuel injector wiring harness.
2. Test between the two injector terminals. Resistance
must be 9-12 ohms (5000) or 10.5-13 ohms (9000).
Coolant Temperature Sensor
1. Disconnect the coolant temperature sensor wiring
harness from the main harness.
2. Test the resistance between the two leads from the
sensor.
3. Compare the resistance reading to the Voltage/Resis-
tance Chart - Coolant Temperature in this section.
178
Air Temperature Sensor
 NOTE: The component temperature must be
known before conducting this test. Allow the engine to
reach room temperature.
1. Disconnect the wiring harness from the air tempera-
ture sensor.
2. Set the meter selector in the OHMS position and test
the sensor connector. Compare with the Volt-
age/Resistance Chart - Air Temperature in this sec-
tion.
NOTE: The air temperature sensor utilizes a therm-

istor. Resistance will change as temperature varies.
Electrical Resistance Tests
(7000)
NOTE: Replace any component that does not have a

test value within specifications. If the component tests
satisfactorily but is suspected to be faulty, connect the
red meter lead to a component lead and the black
meter lead to ground. Check for continuity between
the component and ground. If continuity is observed,
replace the component.
NOTE: The following test should be made using

MaxiClips and the Fluke Model 77 Multimeter set to
OHMS scale.
CAUTION
Always disconnect the battery when performing resis-
tance tests to avoid damaging the multimeter.
Magneto Coil
1. Disconnect the three-white-wire connector.
2. Connect the red meter lead to one white wire; then
connect the black meter lead to another white wire (a
total of three tests).
3. Resistance must be 0.15-0.23 ohm.
Crankshaft Position Sensor
1. Disconnect the sensor.
2. Connect the red meter lead to the gray wire; then
connect the black meter lead to the black wire.
3. Resistance must be 336-504 ohms.
Ignition Coil
1. Disconnect an ignition coil connector.
2. Connect the red meter lead to one terminal; then con-
nect the black meter lead to the other terminal. Pri-
mary coil resistance must be 1.19-1.61 ohms.
