MEASURING THE IGNITION COIL
RESISTANCE
The following procedure applies to all of
the ignition coils.
• Remove the ignition coil from the cylinder
head.
• Connect the pocket tester (W ´ 1) to the
ignition coil as shown.
• Measure the primary coil resistance.
• Connect the pocket tester (W ´ 1k) to the
ignition coil as shown.
• Measure the secondary coil resistance.
• Is the ignition coil OK?
Yes ® Good.
No ® Replace.
MEASURING THE PICKUP COIL
RESISTANCE
• Disconnect the pickup coil coupler from
the wire harness.
• Connect the pocket tester (W ´ 100) to the
pickup coil coupler.
• Measure the pickup coil resistance.
• Is the pickup coil OK?
Yes ® Good.
No ® Replace. Tester positive probe ®

MEASURING THE CHARGING VOLTAGE
• Connect the engine tachometer to the
ignition coil of cylinder #1.
Refer to “SYNCHRONIZING THE THROT-
TLE BODIES” in chapter 3.
• Connect the pocket tester (DC 20V) to the
battery as shown.
• Start the engine and let it run at approxi-
mately 1,100 r/min.
• Measure the charging voltage.
NOTE:
• Make sure that the battery is fully
charged.
• When measuring, turn off the headlights
and make sure that no load is applied.
• Is the charging voltage within specifica-
tion?
Yes ® OK.
No ® Measure the stator coil assembly
resistance. Tester positive probe ®
battery positive terminal
Tester negative probe ®
battery negative terminal
Charging voltage
12 V at 1,100 r/min
MEASURING THE STATOR COIL
ASSEMBLY RESISTANCES
• Disconnect the generator coupler from
the wire harness.
• Connect the pocket tester (W ´ 1) to the
stator coil assembly coupler as shown.
• Measure the stator coil assembly resis-
tances.
• Is the stator coil assembly OK?
Yes ® OK.
No ® Replace. Tester positive probe ® white 1
Tester negative probe ® white 2
Tester positive probe ® white 1
Tester negative probe ® white 3

–+ELECELECTRICAL CONTROL SYSTEM
ELECTRICAL CONTROL SYSTEM
The YZF-R7 features an electrical control system with the following modes:
• user mode
• diagnosis mode
• CO emission adjustment mode
NOTE:
The vehicle is normally in user mode. Special tools are needed to switch to a diagnosis mode
or to the CO emission adjustment mode.
USER MODE
• If a circuit is defective, setting the main switch to “ON” (without starting the engine) will
cause the corresponding condition code to be displayed by the tachometer, the warning
light to light up, and the engine trouble symbol to blink. When the engine is started, the
condition code is no longer displayed and the engine speed appears.
• Normally, when the main switch is set to “ON”, the warning light comes on for 1.4 seconds
and then goes off. The warning light also comes on while the start switch is pushed.
• When the engine is not running, the warning light flashes once every 0.16 second if the start
switch is pushed under the following conditions.
• The fall detection switch switches off the main relay.
• Ignition is cut off by the sidestand switch.
• The injector operating voltage decreases to 3 V or less, or the main relay malfunctions.
• The pickup coil is defective.
• The fall detection switch is defective.
