Wire harness inspection
Remove the seat (page 2-2).
Remove the left crankcase rear cover (page 2-2).
Disconnect the regulator/rectifier 6P and alternator 3P connectors.
Check the connectors for loose or corroded terminals.
Battery line
Measure the voltage between the Red/white wire terminals of the wire harness side and ground.
There should be battery voltage at all times.
Ground line
Check the continuity between the Green wire terminals of the wire harness side and ground.
There should be continuity at all times.
Charging coil line
Measure the resistance between the Yellow wire terminals of the wire harness side.
Standard: 0.1-1.0 Ω (20°C/68°F).
Check for continuity between each Yellow wire terminal of the wire harness side and ground.
There should be no continuity.
Removal/installation
Remove the seat (page 2-2).
Remove the left crankcase rear cover (page 2-2).
Disconnect the regulator/rectifier 6P and alternator 3P connectors.
