TROUBLESHOOTING

BEFORE TROUBLESHOOTING

TROUBLESHOOTING
• Use a known-good battery for troubleshooting.
• Check that the connectors are connected securely.
• Check for sufficient fresh fuel in the fuel tank.
• Check that the emergency stop switch clip is set securely.
• Read the circuit tester's operation instructions carefully, and observe the instructions during inspection.
• When a commercially available circuit tester is used for inspection, use the special tool [Tester probe (Male)
07ZAJ-RDJA110], and take care not to apply excessive force to the connector terminal.
• Switch the tester lead polarities to check the circuit, including the diode. The circuit is normal if there is
continuity in one direction but not the other. If there is continuity in both directions or in neither direction, the
circuit is abnormal.
