5. The Indicator connections (2 x Pink tagged wires)(All S4 models)
Connect one pink wire to the machine's left indicator circuit and the other to the right.
•
With the indicators of the machine cancelled and the ignition turned off; press the INDICATOR switch on the
test box. If all is correct the indicators on the machine will light (please note: On some Canbus based machines
only the front or rear indicators will light due to the design of the machines electrical system).
•
If only one side lights, check the wire you have connected to on the non-lit side IS the indicator wire. Check the
connection to that side to ensure it is good.
•
If neither indicator works, check you have power to the test box (Neg LED(s) ON) and both connections of the
Pink tagged wires.
•
If the alarm fuse blows when you press the indicator switch or the test box buzzes or trips out, you have
connected the Pink tagged wire of the alarm to the negative wire of one or both of the indicators (or have a
direct short to the indicator wire). Re-test the indicator wires on the machine and correct the connection. Then
re-test the alarm wiring again using the test box after replacing any blown fuses.
The Indicator diode test.
Some machines require an in-line diode to be installed into the wiring of the indicator relay. To test if this is required,
carry out the following test.
•
With the ignition turned OFF, position the indicator switch of the machine so it would be set to flash the
indicators either Right or Left. It doesn't matter which way.
•
Position the light switch of the machine (if fitted) so the lights would be ON if the machine was running.
•
Press and hold the Indicator switch on the test box whilst looking at the dash lights and instruments to see if
anything other than the indicator repeater lights works.
diode is required.
•
With the indicator switch on the test box still held ON, check to see if the headlight or side light circuit is on.
•
Test the starter button to see if the machine cranks (always check the machine is in neutral and any interlock
systems on the machine are set to the run position, e.g. Kill switch, Clutch, Side stand, etc).
•
If during these tests any extra lights or instruments operate, the alarm fuse blows, the test box trips out or
buzzes or the machine cranks over (and possibly starts too!) a diode will have to be inserted in line with the
input or output of the indicator relay.
Please refer to the diagram on Page 18 'Dioding the indicator relay' for the method.
6. ECU Protection switch (Green/Black and Green/Red wires)(S4 Red and Green, option on Yellow)
After selecting the position and mounting the magnetic reed switch and its magnet trigger, connect the Green/Black wire
and Green/Red alarm wires one to each wire of the switch.
To test the switch:
•
Replace the panel with the magnet assembly attached. The LED 'Trigger 1' should light up.
•
Next remove the panel. The LED 'Trigger 1' should go out
If the LED does not come on when the panel is in position, it is probable the magnet is too far from the switch assembly or
you have a bad connection. Adjust the Switch/Magnet as required.
If the LED remains on when the panel is removed it is likely the Green/Red tagged wire is earthed somewhere along its
length, check the wiring.
7. The OPTIONAL Secondary trigger circuit (Green tagged wire)(S4 Red and Green)
Should you decide to use this wire connect it to whatever negative signal switching device you have decided to use such
as the side stand or clutch switch (remember some switches may require an in-line diode to be used).
Operate the switching device whilst looking at the 'Trigger 2' LED. If it is working correctly you should see it go to the
opposite state of OFF or ON during the operation, it doesn't matter which way it switches.
If it stays ON all the time you either need to fit a diode, you have selected the wrong wire or the trigger wire is shorted to
earth. Disconnect the wire and test it by manually earthing it out whilst looking at the test box. Once checked for correct
operation, modify the connection point or fit a diode into the correct point of the trigger line.
If it stays OFF all the time you either have a bad connection or again you have selected the wrong wire. Disconnect the
wire and test it by manually earthing it out whilst looking at the test box.
If this happens with the indicator set to left or right; a
