HANDLING NOTE
Do not loosen the screw (throttle position
sensor) "1" except when changing the
throttle position sensor due to failure be-
cause it will cause a drop in engine perfor-
mance.
CHECKING THE COUPLERS AND LEADS
CONNECTION
1. Check:
• Couplers and leads connection
Rust/dust/looseness/short-circuit → Repair
or replace.
CHECKING THE THROTTLE POSITION
SENSOR COIL
1. Inspect:
• Throttle position sensor coil resistance
Out of specification → Replace.
Tester (+) lead → Blue lead "1"
Tester (-) lead → Black lead "2"

2. Loosen:
• Throttle stop screw "1"
Turn out the throttle stop screw until the throttle
shaft is in the full close position.
3. Inspect:
• Throttle position sensor coil variable resis-
tance
Check that the resistance in increased as
the throttle grip is moved from the full close
position to the full open position.
Out of specification → Replace.
