ABOUT THIS CHAPTER
This chapter is divided into four sections:
• Section 1: About this chapter and Precautions
• Section 2: Components
This section will describe the location and opera-
tion of the electrical components on the vehicle.
Where appropriate, some disassembly or com-
ponent removal instructions will be included.
• Section 3: Diagnostic Techniques
This section will cover basic tools, techniques,
and methodology for diagnosing electrical issues
on the vehicle. A lot of the information in this
section can be applied to other equipment.
• Section 4: Schematics
Precautions:
CAUTION: Before disconnecting any electrical
component, take precautions to prevent the
component or the wires attached to it from short-
ing out. The most effective means of doing this
is to disconnect the battery ground cable from
the negative battery terminal.
CAUTION: Unless performing tests that require
the electrical system to be in operation, discon-
nect the negative cable from the battery before
doing any work to the electrical system of the
vehicle.
CAUTION: Refer to Section 5 of the Operator’s
Manual and Section 3 of this chapter for normal
maintenance procedures and precautions that
relate to the battery.
