Daytime Running Lights; Drl" Test / Lamp Replacement - Polaris PREDATOR 50 2009 Manual

DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS

"DRL" Test
The daytime running lights are powered by an AC current from
the Generator / Stator.
If running lights are not working, perform the following:
1. Disconnect the harness from the faulty light.
2. Using a Volt Ohm Meter, measure the AC voltage between
the yellow red (YE/RD) and black (BK) wires. Voltage
above 5 VAC should be present when unit is running.
If voltage is present:
1. Replace the faulty bulb.
If voltage is not present:
1. The black wire should have continuity to ground. If no
continuity is present, check for an open in the wiring
harness or a poor connection.
2. If black wire has good continuity to ground, check the
wiring harness from the stator to the running lights. There
should be continuity between the (YE/RD) wire at the light
connector and the (YE/RD) wire at the Generator / Stator.
3. If continuity is good. Perform stator resistance tests by
using the resistance chart located in the wiring diagram.
4. Replace Generator / Stator if resistance is not within
specification.
