This warning light comes on or flashes when an
electrical circuit monitoring the engine is defective.
When this occurs, have a Yamaha dealer check
the self-diagnosis system. (See page 4-5 for an ex-
planation of the self-diagnosis device.)
The electrical circuit of the warning light can be
checked by turning the key to “ON”. If the warning
light does not come on, then go off, have a
Yamaha dealer check the electrical circuit.EBU27542Electric Power Steering warning light “EPS”
This warning light comes on when the key is turned
to “ON”, and then goes off once the engine is start-
ed. If the warning light remains on or comes on af-ter the engine is started, the EPS system may be

checked by turning the key to “ON”. If the warning
light does not come on, have a Yamaha dealer
check the electrical circuit.

If the engine is stopped using the engine stop
switch and the key is in the “ON” position, the
EPS warning light comes on to indicate that the
power assistance for the steering is not function-
ing.
If the steering load is too heavy (i.e., excessive
steering use when the ATV is traveling at a slow
speed), the power assist is reduced to protectthe EPS motor from overheating.EBU17961On-Command four-wheel-drive/differential
