Fuses

Fuses protect the snowmobile electrical
system from overloading. If electrical
parts in the snowmobile are not working,
the system may have been overloaded and
caused a blown fuse. Before repairing or
replacing any electrical part, check the
appropriate fuses. If a fuse blows (opens a
circuit), all the parts of the snowmobile
that use that circuit will not work.
Once which fuse to check has been deter-
mined, perform the following steps:
1. Locate the fuse block and remove
the fuse block cover.

NOTE: Open the right-side access
panel; the fuse block is on the upper
spar.


NOTE: There are spare fuses
beneath the fuse block cover.
2. Remove the suspected fuse.


NOTE: Fuse function descriptions
are next to the fuse contacts in the
fuse block.
3. Look through the clear side of the
fuse to see if the element inside is
burned or separated. If it is, the fuse is
blown and should be replaced with a
fuse of the correct amperage rating.
! WARNING
Always replace a fuse with one hav-
ing the same specified amperage rat-
ing. Using a fuse with a higher rating
can cause severe wire damage and
could start a fire.
4. Install the fuse block cover and close
the access panel.
Even after replacing a fuse, it may con-
tinue to blow if the cause of the overload
is not determined. If the fuse continues to
blow, take the snowmobile to an autho-
rized Yamaha Snowmobile dealer for ser-
vice. If not under warranty, this service is
at the discretion and expense of the
snowmobile owner.
