NOTE:
• Before troubleshooting, remove the following part(-s):
1) fuel tank
2) air filter case
3) bottom cowling
4) front cowling
5) rear cowling
• Troubleshoot with the following special tool(-s).
Replace the ECU.
Ignition checker
90890-06754
Pocket tester
90890-03112
MEASURING THE IGNITION SPARK GAP
The following procedure applies to all of
the spark plugs.
• Disconnect the ignition coil from the spark
plug.
• Connect the ignition checker 1 as shown.
2 Ignition coil
• Set the main switch to “ON”.
• Measure the ignition spark gap a.
• Crank the engine by pushing the start
switch and gradually increase the spark
gap until a misfire occurs.
• Is there a spark and is the spark gap
within specification?
Yes ® Good.
No ® Measure the ignition coil resistance.
Minimum ignition spark gap
6 mm (0.24 in)

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

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
