Test Results
1. A low resistance value indicates a short in the coil wind-
ing. Replace coil.
2. A high resistance value might indicate that there is some
corrosion/oxidation of the coil terminals. Clean the termi-
nals and repeat resistance test. If resistance is still high
after cleaning terminals, replace coil.
3. An infinite ohms (∞ or no continuity) resistance value
indicates an open circuit (a break in the coil winding).
Replace coil.
REMOVAL
1. Remove seat. See 2.28 SEAT.
11WARNING1WARNING
To protect against shock and accidental start-up of vehi-
cle, disconnect the negative battery cable before proced-
ing. Inadequate safety precautions could result in death

3. Remove fuel tank cover. See 4.2 FUEL TANK COVER/
FUEL TANK.
4. Remove left fascia.
5. See Figure 7-24. Disconnect spark plug cable from coil
plug post.
6. See Figure 7-27. Disconnect coil connector [83].
7. Remove two screws and washers and coil.
INSTALLATION
1. See Figure 7-24. Apply LOCTITE THREADLOCKER 243
(Blue) to threads of two mounting screws.
2. Attach coil to frame with screws and washers (1). Tighten
to 4-6 ft-lbs (5-8 Nm).
3. Attach coil connector [83].
4. Connect spark plug cable to ignition coil.
5. Attach left fascia.
