INSTALLING
1. Mark the new fuel pump with a reference mark in the
same location as the removed pump; then place the
new gasket on the pump.
2. Remove the material covering the fuel pump open-
ing; then carefully guide the fuel pump into position
taking care not to damage the float or float lever.
3. Rotate the fuel pump until the match marks align;
then install the mounting screws and tighten securely
using a crisscross pattern.
NOTE: It is critical to install the fuel pump with the
correct orientation to ensure adequate float lever
clearance.
4. Connect the wires and fuel hose; then turn the igni-
tion switch to the ON position. Note that the fuel
pump runs momentarily and the fuel gauge indicates
the proper fuel level.
5. With the transmission in neutral and brake lever lock
engaged, start the engine and check for normal oper-
ation. Check for any fuel leaks.
6. Install any wire ties that were removed; then install
the rear fenders, rack, and seat making sure the seat

2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. The
multimeter should read battery voltage. If battery
voltage is not indicated, check the 30-amp main and
10-amp ignition fuses, wiring harness, or the ignition
switch.
3. Remove the red tester lead and connect to the
blue/brown wire (B). The multimeter should read 0.2
DC volts or less. If the specified voltage is not indi-
cated, check wire connections at the ECM or substi-
tute another ECM to verify the test.
