W/Harness Inspection





Terminal and Connector Inspection

1. Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness and terminals.
Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems and mechanical or chemical damage.
2. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration or damage.
3. Has a problem been found?






Charging System Inspection

1. Engine "ON", headlight and heatwire "ON".
2. Measure voltage between the battery terminal (+) and (-) maintaining ENG. RPM 2,500 RPM (idle) over 2 minutes.

Specification : Approx. 10 ≤ Vbatt ≤ 15.5





3. Is the measured voltage within specifications?






Power Circuit Inspection

1. Ignition "OFF".
2. Disconnect the battery (-) terminal cable from the battery and wait at least one minute.
3. Disconnect the SRSCM connector.
4. Connect the battery (-) terminal cable and start engine.
5. Measure voltage between terminal "ON/START input" of the SRSCM harness connector and chassis ground.

Specification : Approx. 10 ≤ Vbatt ≤ 15.5





6. Is the measured voltage within specifications?






Ground Circuit Inspection

1. Ignition "OFF".
2. Disconnect the battery (-) terminal cable from the battery and wait at least one minute.
3. Disconnect the SRSCM connector.
4. Measure resistance between terminal "Ground" of the SRSCM harness connector and chassis ground.

Specification : Approx. 1 Ohm below.





5. Is the measured resistance within specifications?
