11. Secure the main black negative
cable and the small black negative
cable to the battery using a cap
screw, lock washer, and a flat
washer. Tighten securely.
CAUTION
Connecting cables in reverse (posi-
tive to negative and negative to posi-
tive) can cause serious damage to
the electrical system.
NOTE: Assure the harness wires and
cables are routed properly as noted
during removing battery procedure.
12. Install the battery bracket/solenoid
and tighten the two screws and lock
nuts to 1.2 kg-m (105 in.-lb); then
install the seat and secure with the
torx-head screw. Tighten securely.
NOTE: Prior to lowering and secur-
ing the seat, connect the seat heater
harness connector.
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: The fuse block is behind
the coolant overflow bottle.
26
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
XM167A
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.
Brake System
Yamaha recommends that the brake sys-
tem (brake lever, fluid reservoir, hose,
caliper, pads, and brake disc) be checked
daily for fluid leakage, wear, or damage
and for proper operation. Also, the brake
fluid level must be checked every time
before starting the engine.
