5) Attach the big crocodile clip on the metal part
of the spark plug - FIGURE 3.
6) Attach the small crocodile clip on the ground
cable eye terminal in the starter - FIGURE 4.
7) Disconnect the blind plug and the connector
for the ICU charging. Plug the mounting tool con-
nector into the charging connector – FIGURE 5.

8) Insert the engine shut-o key in the engine
shut-o switch of the control handle (ICU ac-
tivation).
9) After 3 seconds reinsert the key in the en-
gine shut-o switch (the starter switches on).
Under the cap of the mounting tool you should
see a spark on the spark plug electrode.
Remark: In daylight it may be more dicult
to see the spark. It does not have to be one
spark but you can see more tiny sparks.
Warning: The spark test can be repeated
maximum ten times. Overusing the starter
may cause its overheating and damaging.
DIAGNOSTICS
A) If the spark plug does not spark, proceed according to the table in chapter 10 on page 85 - TROU-
BLESHOOTING, 1st line highlighted in orange.
B) If the spark plug sparks after the engine shut-o key is pulled out, proceed according to the table
on page 85 in chapter 10 - TROUBLESHOOTING, 2nd line highlighted in orange.
10) Switch o the ICU by inserting the engine shut-o key in the MAGNET position on the ICU ignition
- FIGURE 6.
11) Remove the mounting tool – disconnect both crocodile clips, disconnect the connector for the
ICU charging and insert the connector in the blind plug, remove the cap from the spark plug.
CHECK OF THE SPARK PLUG AND TIMING
SENSOR FUNCTION
Be careful, there is high
voltage on the spark plug
boot. Never remove the
boot from the spark plug
when the ignition is on (the signalling LED
must not be lit or ashing).
Do not remove the boot from the spark plug
if there is water or leaked petrol in the en-
gine compartment. Be very careful about
petrol vapours. If you can smell petrol, NEV-
ER start the engine.
When working in the engine compartment,
it is FORBIDDEN to handle re.
When checking the spark plug and timing
sensor function, always use a mounting tool
supplied with the accessories for testing the
sparks.
PROCEDURE:
– Check that the engine is not hot. We rec-
ommend performing the assembly minimum
0.5 hours after the engine is switched o.
– Check that the ICU control unit is not on
(the LED is not on or ashing)!
Required tools: : spark plug spanner supplied by
the manufacturer (accessories) - 19 mm.
CONNECTING THE MOUNTING TOOL FOR
SPARK PLUG TESTING
1) Remove the spring from the spark plug boot
and remove the boot.
2) Screw the spark plug out using a spark plug
spanner. Check the spark plug and possibly dry it.
3) Insert the spark plug back into the spark plug
boot - FIGURE 1.
4) Place the cap on the top of the spark plug (elec-
trode) - FIGURE 2.
