62. Unhook the battery band, and then
remove the battery cover.
3. Remove the starter relay cover by pulling it upward. 4. Remove the blown fuse, and then
install a new fuse of the specified
amperage.  WARNING! Do not
use a fuse of a higher amperage
rating than recommended to
avoid causing extensive dam-
age to the electrical system and
possibly a fire.
 [EWA15131]
5. Turn the key to “ON” and turn on the electrical circuit in question to
check if the device operates.
6. If the fuse immediately blows again, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical system.
7. Install the starter relay cover.
8. Install the battery cover, and then hook the battery band onto the
holder.

Troubleshooting Although Yamaha motorcycles receive
a thorough inspection before shipment
from the factory, trouble may occur dur-
ing operation. Any problem in the fuel,
compression, or ignition systems, for
example, can cause poor starting and
loss of power.
The following troubleshooting charts
represent quick and easy procedures
for checking these vital systems your-
self. However, should your motorcycle
require any repair, take it to a Yamaha
dealer, whose skilled technicians have
the necessary tools, experience, and
know-how to service the motorcycle
properly.
Use only genuine Yamaha replace-
ment parts. Imitation parts may look like
Yamaha parts, but they are often inferi- or, have a shorter service life and can
lead to expensive repair bills.
WARNING
EWA15141
When checking the fuel system, do
not smoke, and make sure there are
no open flames or sparks in the ar-
ea, including pilot lights from water heaters or furnaces. Gasoline or
gasoline vapors can ignite or ex-
plode, causing severe injury or
property damage.
