YESNO
Replace the starting
circuit cut-off relay.
YESNO 4. Voltage
Connect the pocket tester (DC 20 V) to the
meter assembly coupler (wire harness side)
as shown.
The wiring circuit
from the main switch
to the meter assem-
bly coupler is faulty
and must be re-
paired. Positive tester probe brown
Negative tester probe ground

Turn the main switch to “ON”.
Measure the voltage (DC 12 V) of brown
at the meter assembly coupler (wire harness
side).
Is the voltage within specification?
This circuit is OK.
Are the tester readings correct?
YESNO 1. Oil level warning light (LEDs)
Check the oil level warning light for continu-
ity.
When the main switch is turn to “ON”, the oil
level warning light is come on.
Are the oil level warning light OK?
Replace the meter
assembly.

5. The oil level warning light fails to come on.
YESNO 2. Oil level switch
Drain the engine oil and remove the oil level
switch from the oil pan.
Connect the pocket tester (Ω 100) to the
oil level switch as shown.
Replace the oil level
switch. Positive tester probe
