FUSES
DESCRIPTION
If something electrical on your motorcycle
stops working, the first thing you should
check for is a blown fuse. The electrical cir-
cuits on the motorcycle are protected from
overload by fuses in the circuits.
WARNING
Replacing a fuse with a fuse that has an
incorrect amperage rating or substitute,
e.g. aluminum foil or wire, may cause
serious damage to the electrical system
and possibly fire. Always replace a
blown fuse with a fuse of the same
amperage rating.
If the new fuse blows in a short time, the
electrical problem may not be fixed.
Have your motorcycle inspected immedi-
ately by your dealer.
NOTICE
Installing electrical items such as lights,
gauges, etc., that are not suitable for the
motorcycle may cause fuses to blow or
may run down the battery.
Use genuine Suzuki parts when attach-
ing electrical items.
NOTICE
Spraying water or wiping forcefully
around fuses when washing the motor-
cycle may cause water to enter the wir-
ing, causing corrosion or short
circuiting.
Do not spray water or wipe forcefully in
the area around fuses.
