Honda CB360 - Fuse Replacement and Electrical Checks

Battery charging:
Should the battery electrolyte specific
gravity reading (measured with a hydro-
meter) drop below 1.200 @ 68°F (20°C),
the battery should be charged at a rate
not to exceed 1.2 amps until the specific
gravity reading is between 1.260 and
1.280 @ 68*F (20* C).
Frequent
discharging
or
a
partially
dis-
charged
battery condition
is
sometimes
the
result
of
improper
starting
procedure,
poor
engine
condition
and/or
electrical
system
problems.
To
locate
and
correct
the
cause
of
this
condition,
we
suggest
you
contact
your
Honda
dealer.
When storing the motorcycle the battery
negative
(—)
cable
should
be
disconnected
or
the
battery
removed
and
stored
in
a
cool place. The battery should be charged
at
least
once
a
month
during
tbe
storage
period to preserve battery life.
Fuse replacement:
The fuse box @ is located in the rear of
the battery compartment.
The recommended fuses for these models
are 15A and 7A. When frequent failure of
a fuse occurs, it usually indicates a short
circuit or on overload in the electrical
system. In this case the electrical system
should be checked visually for shorts or
other possible malfunctions. If the prob-
lem cannot be located visually, the
motorcycle should be examined by an
authorized Honda dealer.
CAUTION:
• Ensure that the fuse box specified
amperage is matched by the replace-
ment fuse.
* Never use a fuse with a different rating
from that which is recommended.
• Never use conductive material to re-
