6. Rotate the reverse selector knob clockwise and
depress the gear shifter pedal to engage reverse gear;
then connect the red meter lead to the red wire. The
meter must show less than 1 ohm.
7. Lift the gear shifter pedal twice to return to neutral.
The meter must show an open circuit.
Clutch Lever Position
Switch
RESISTANCE
1. Disconnect the battery; then disconnect the two-wire
connector at the steering post.
2. Set the meter selector to the OHMS position; then
connect the black meter lead to the black wire and
the red meter lead to the yellow/black wire.
3. Compress the clutch lever. The meter should show
less than 1 ohm. Release the clutch lever and verify
that the meter shows an open circuit.
Magneto Coils
NOTE: All peak voltage tests should be made
using the Fluke Model 73 Multimeter (p/n 0644-191)
with Peak Voltage Reading Adapter (p/n 0644-307).
If any other type of tester is used, readings may
vary due to internal circuitry.
NOTE: The battery must be at full charge for this
test.
PEAK VOLTAGE (Charging Coil -
Output)
1. Set the meter selector to the D.C. Voltage position.
2. Connect the red tester lead to the positive battery
post; then connect the black tester lead to the nega-
tive battery post.
3. With the engine running at a constant 5000 RPM
(with the headlights on), the meter must be within
specification.
NOTE: If voltage is lower than specified, test
Charging Coil - No Load.
VOLTAGE (Charging Coil - No Load)
NOTE: The peak voltage reading adapter must be
disconnected for this test.
The connector is the black one on the left side near the
voltage regulator.
NOTE: Test the connector that comes from the
engine.
SP084A
1. Set the meter selector to the A.C. Voltage position.
2. Test between the three brown wires for a total of
three tests.
AR630D
3. With the engine running at a constant 5000 RPM, all
wire tests must show 65+ A.C. volts.
NOTE: If both charging coil tests failed, check all
connections, etc., and test again. If no voltage is
present, replace the stator assembly.
RESISTANCE (Charging Coil)
1. Set the meter selector to OHMS position.
2. Test between the three brown wires for a total of
three tests.
! CAUTION
Always disconnect the battery when performing
resistance tests to avoid damaging the multimeter.
! CAUTION
Do not run the engine at high RPM for more than
10 seconds.
