SERVICE INFORMATION
GENERAL
• All electrical wires and connectors are color-coded. When two or more different colored wires are connected, a colored tube
that matches the major color of the other wire appears on the wire near the connector. Observe the color codes before
disconnecting ant wires. All plastic plugs have locking tabs that must be released before disconnecting, and must be
aligned when reconnecting.
• In order to isolate the electrical failure, check the continuity of the electrical path through the part. A continuity check can
usually be made without removing the part from the motorcycle by simply disconnecting the wires and connecting a
continuity tester or ohmmeter to the terminals or connections.
