Ignition Relay
The ignition relay is located on the left side of the vehicle
behind the fairing. Test the relay as follows:
1. See Figure 7-15. Locate ignition relay (2) within relay
block.
2. To test relay, proceed to Step 3. If installing a new starter
relay, remove old relay. Install new relay into relay block.
3. See Figure 7-16. Obtain a 12 volt battery and a continu-
ity tester or ohmmeter.
a. Pull relay from relay block.
b. Connect positive battery lead to the 86 terminal.
c. Connect negative battery lead to the 85 terminal to
energize relay.
d. Check for continuity between the 30 and 87 termi-
nals. A good relay shows continuity (continuity tester
lamp “on” or a zero ohm reading on the ohmmeter).
A malfunctioning relay will not show continuity and
must be replaced.
4. Replace the relay with a new relay if necessary.
Key Switch Relay
See Figure 7-15. The key switch relay (1) is located on the left
side of the vehicle behind the fairing. See Ignition Relay
under 7.5 STARTER INTERLOCK for testing procedure.
Main Fuse
A 30 Amp main fuse links the ignition key switch and the bat-
tery. The 30 Amp main fuse is located under the rider’s seat.
See 7.22 MAIN FUSE AND FUSES for more information.
