Fuse replacementThe fuse box is located under the rider
seat and the main fuse case is at-
tached to the starter relay. If any fuse is
blown, turn off the main switch and the
switch of the circuit in question. Install a
new fuse of specified amperage. Turn
on the switches and see if the electrical
device operates. If the fuse immediate-
ly blows again, consult a Yamaha deal-
er. It is recommended that the main
fuse be replaced by a Yamaha dealer.

improper rating can cause extensive
electrical system damage and pos-
sibly a fire. @
