CHECKING THE BULBS AND BULB SOCKETSELEC
WARNING
EAS00732
CHECKING THE BULBS AND
BULB SOCKETS
Check each bulb and bulb socket for damage or
wear, proper connections, and also for continu-
ity between the terminals.
Damage / wear
Repair or replace the bulb,
bulb socket or both.
Improperly connected
Properly connect.
No continuity
Repair or replace the bulb, bulb
socket or both.
TYPES OF BULBS
The bulbs used on this motorcycle are shown in
the illustration on the left.

Bulbs
A and B are used for the headlights
and usually use a bulb holder that must be
detached before removing the bulb. The ma-
jority of these types of bulbs can be removed
from their respective socket by turning them
counterclockwise.

Bulbs
C are used for turn signal and
tail / brake lights and can be removed from
the socket by pushing and turning the bulb
counterclockwise.
CHECKING THE CONDITION OF THE
BULBS
The following procedure applies to all of the
bulbs.
1. Remove:

bulb

Since the headlight bulb gets extremely
hot, keep flammable products and your
hands away from the bulb until it has
cooled down.

When changing the tail / brake light bulb,
confirm that the frame has cooled accord-
ing to the warning label and change the
tail / brake light bulb.

CHECKING THE BULBS AND BULB SOCKETSELEC
CAUTION:
NOTE:

Be sure to hold the socket firmly when re-
moving the bulb. Never pull the lead, other-
wise it may be pulled out of the terminal in
the coupler.

Avoid touching the glass part of the head-
light bulb to keep it free from oil, otherwise
the transparency of the glass, the life of the
bulb, and the luminous flux will be adverse-
ly affected. If the headlight bulb gets soiled,
thoroughly clean it with a cloth moistened
with alcohol or lacquer thinner.
2. Check:

bulb (for continuity)
(with the pocket tester)
No continuity
Replace.
Pocket tester
90890-03112, YU-3112
Before checking for continuity, set the pocket
tester to “0” and to the “Ω
1” range.
a. Connect the positive tester probe to terminal
1 and the negative tester probe to terminal
2, and check the continuity.
b. Connect the positive tester probe to terminal
1 and the negative tester probe to terminal
3, and check the continuity.
c. If either of the readings indicate no continuity,
replace the bulb.
CHECKING THE CONDITION OF THE BULB
SOCKETS
The following procedure applies to all of the bulb
sockets.
1. Check:

bulb socket (for continuity)
(with the pocket tester)
No continuity
Replace.

NOTE:
NOTE:
WARNING
Pocket tester
90890-03112, YU-3112
Check each bulb socket for continuity in the
same manner as described in the bulb section;
however, note the following.
a. Install a good bulb into the bulb socket.
b. Connect the pocket tester probes to the re-
spective leads of the bulb socket.
c. Check the bulb socket for continuity. If any of
the readings indicate no continuity, replace
the bulb socket.
CHECKING THE LEDs
The following procedures applies to all of the
LEDs.
1. Check:

LED (for proper operation)
Improper operation
Replace.
a. Disconnect the meter assembly coupler (me-
ter assembly side).
b. Connect two jumper leads
1 from the bat-
tery terminals to the respective coupler ter-
minal.
As for connecting with which coupler terminal,
refer to “CABLE ROUTING” in chapter 2.

A wire that is used as a jumper lead must
have at least the same capacity of the bat-
tery lead, otherwise the jumper lead may
burn.

This check is likely to produce sparks,
therefore, make sure no flammable gas or
fluid is in the vicinity.
c. When the jumper leads are connected to the
terminals the respective LED should illumi-
nate.
Does not light
Replace the meter assem-
bly.
