! WARNING
Care should be taken to keep clear of the fan blades.
NOTE: Fan motor resistance checks are not recom-

mended. Resistance values change with the motor
commutator position.

Lights

VOLTAGE (Headlights)
Each headlight has one HI/LO three-pin connector and
one two-pin connector for the LED lights.
 NOTE: The HI/LO bulb-connector is located
toward the inside of the headlight assembly. It uses a
three-pin connector with the corresponding color
codes: white, yellow/black, and black. The LED light
and connector are located toward the outside of the
headlight assembly and use the color codes white/red
and black.
1. Set the meter selector to the DC Voltage position.
2. Set the light switch to the correct position for the
affected light; then connect the black tester lead to
the black wire using a MaxiClip.
3. Connect the red tester lead to the yellow/black wire
(high beam) or white wire (low beam) using a Maxi-
Clip. The meter must show battery voltage.
NOTE: If battery voltage is not shown in any test,

inspect the LIGHTS fuse on the power distribution
module, headlight switch, ignition switch, switch con-
nectors, or wiring harness.
4. To test LED voltage, disconnect the two-pin connec-
tor from the back of the headlight; then connect the
black tester lead to the black wire using a MaxiClip.
Connect the red tester lead to the white/red wire
(LED). The meter must show battery voltage.
VOLTAGE (Taillight)
NOTE: Perform this test at the socket end of the

taillight-brakelight harness (pigtail). The ignition
switch must be in the ON position and either high
beam or low beam selected on the light switch.
1. Set the meter selector to the DC Voltage position.
102
2. Connect the black tester lead to the black wire; then
connect the red tester lead to the white/red wire. The
meter should show battery voltage.
3. With the ignition key in the LIGHTS position, the
meter must show battery voltage.
NOTE: If battery voltage is not shown and the head-

lights are illuminated, inspect the three-wire connec-
tor in the left-rear canopy tube at the juncture of the
canopy tube and lower frame. If battery voltage is
shown on the meter, replace the bulb.
VOLTAGE (Brakelight)
 NOTE: Perform this test at the socket end of the
taillight-brakelight harness (pigtail). The ignition
switch must be in the ON position.
1. Set the meter selector to the DC Voltage position.
2. Connect the red tester lead to the red/blue wire; then
connect the black tester lead to the black wire.
3. With the brake applied, the meter must show battery
voltage.
NOTE: If the meter shows no voltage, inspect the 10

amp ignition (IGN) fuse, brakelight switch, wiring
harness, or connectors.
Power Distribution Module
(PDM)
NOTE: The module and wiring harness are not a

serviceable component and must be replaced as an
assembly.
If there is any type of electrical system failure, always
check the fuses first.
NOTE: The fuses are located in a power distribu-

tion module under the left side of the dash.
1. Remove all fuses from the power distribution module.
NOTE: To remove a fuse, compress the locking tabs

on either side of the fuse case and lift out.
4411-131
CAUTION
Always replace a blown fuse with a fuse of the same
type and rating.
NOTE: Make sure the fuses are returned to their

proper position according to amperage. Refer to the
amperage listed under each fuse on the power distri-
bution module.
2. Set the meter selector to the DC Voltage position.
