Inspection
- Remove the right frame head cover and right radiator cover. (9-6)
- Disconnect the cooling fan coupler 1.
- Test the cooling fan motor for load current with an ammeter connected as shown in the illustration.
- The voltmeter is for making sure that the battery 2 applies 12 volts to the cooling fan motor 3. With the cooling fan motor with electric motor fan running at full speed, the ammeter 4 should be indicating not 8.5 amperes and more.
- If the fan motor does not turn, replace the motor assembly with a new one. (8-5)
Note: When making above test, it is not necessary to remove the cooling fan.
Cooling fan relay inspection
Cooling fan relay is located in front of the battery.
- Remove the right frame side cover. (9-5)
- Remove the cooling fan relay 1.
First check the insulation between A and B terminals with tester. Then apply 12 volts to C and D terminals, + to C and − to D, and check the continuity between A and B.
If there is no continuity, replace it with a new one.
- 09900-25008: Multi-circuit tester set
- Tester knob indication: Continuity test (•)))
