EAS1SM5329YAMAHA DIAGNOSTIC TOOL
This model uses the Yamaha diagnostic tool to identify malfunctions.
For information about using the Yamaha diagnostic tool, refer to the operation manual that is included
with the tool.
FEATURES OF THE YAMAHA DIAGNOSTIC TOOL
A diagnosis can be made more quickly than traditional methods with the Yamaha diagnostic tool.
Using this software, ECU and sensor data, as well as fault diagnosis, vehicle maintenance, and any
necessary information can be recorded and displayed on your computer screen through a USB
adapter connected to the computer interface with a communication cable connected to the vehicle’s
ECU.
Data obtained in various functions can be saved as vehicle history, and can be accumulated.
FUNCTIONS OF THE YAMAHA DIAGNOSTIC TOOL
However, the diagnostic tool cannot be used to freely change the basic vehicle functions, such as
adjusting the ignition timing.
CONNECTING THE YAMAHA DIAGNOSTIC TOOL
1. Remove the coupler for connecting setting tool.Yamaha diagnostic tool
90890-03231
Yamaha diagnostic tool (US)
90890-03234
Fault diagnosis mode Fault codes recorded on the ECU are read, and the con-
tents are displayed.
Function diagnostic mode Check the operation of the output value of each sensor
and actuator.
Inspection mode Determine whether each sensor or actuator is functioning
properly.
CO adjustment mode Adjust the concentration of CO admissions during idling.
Monitoring mode Displays a graph of sensor output values for actual oper-
ating conditions.
Logging mode Records and saves the sensor output value in actual driv-
ing conditions.
View log Displays the logging data.
ECU rewrite If necessary, the ECU is rewritten using the ECU rewrite
data provided by Yamaha. Ignition timing adjustment, etc.
cannot be changed from the vehicle’s original state.

2. Connect the FI diagnostic tool sub-lead.
3. Connect the FI diagnostic tool sub-lead to the battery.
TIP
• Prepare the fully charged 12 V battery for yourself.
• For information on how to connect and use the Yamaha diagnostic tool, refer to “YAMAHA DIGNO-
STIC TOOL OPERATION MANUAL”.
EAS1SM5330TROUBLESHOOTING DETAILS
This section describes the measures per fault code No. displayed on the Yamaha diagnostic tool.
Check and service the items or components that are the probable cause of the malfunction following
the order given in the troubleshooting chart.
After the check and service of the malfunctioning part have been completed, reset the Yamaha diag-
nostic tool display according to the “Reinstatement method”.
Fault code No.: To be displayed on the Yamaha diagnostic tool when the engine fails to work nor-
mally
