  1. INSPECT ENGINE SWITCH 
    1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      7 (SS1) - 5 (GND) Not pushed 10 kΩ or higher
      2 (SS2) - 5 (GND) Not pushed 10 kΩ or higher
      7 (SS1) - 5 (GND) Pushed Below 1 Ω
      2 (SS2) - 5 (GND) Pushed Below 1 Ω

      If the resistance is not as specified, replace the engine switch.

    2. Apply battery voltage between the terminals of the switch, and check the illumination condition of the switch.

      HINT: 

      • If the positive (+) lead and the negative (-) lead are incorrectly connected, the engine switch indicator will not illuminate.
      • If the voltage is too low, the indicator will not illuminate.

      OK
