    Few wires on yamaha gauge not connected ?

    Blue is for the lights. Red is battery power. I would not think that you would want the lights to be on all of the time. Lights are normally turned on by the key being turned on or by a separate light switch, as shown in the diagram.

    Have you any idea as to the model of the motor or the type of gauges that you have? Might look something like this:

    1 or an OL on the meter, when measuring resistance or continuity, means there is no continuity or the circuit is broken. OL for open loop or open line. Per the inner web.

    2015 Yamaha F200XB Intake Manifold Removal

    Parts list and SM show a total of nine bolts. Looks like four up front and five in the rear. Yamaha service manuals are written for Yamaha trained mechanics. They do not go into the detail that are needed by some backyardigans.

    Set the multimeter on the continuity setting. Connect a probe to the brown wire. Connect the other probe to the block. There should no continuity.

    And did you check both wires to verify that neither is unintentionally shorted to ground?

    Why would you set the meter on DC when you are measuring for AC voltage?

    I have no idea what I am seeing. Let's start over. Disconnect the brown wire terminal and the red wire terminal from the CDI box. Attach your volt meter to the terminals. One probe to the brown wire terminal and the other probe to the red wire terminal. Voltmeter set on AC. Pull the kill...

    Yamaha 2 stroke -

    Yamaha service manuals are written for a trained Yamaha outboard motor mechanic. They offer virtually no theory of operation. All but useless for the novice mechanic. See what you can find on the motor with respect to letters and numbers. The main engine harness may have a white tag near the...

    As Yam notes, that test is for the ignition coils. All six of them. Are you familiar with ignition coils? Where they are and how they work?

    The two green wires are from the lighting coil to the rectifer/regulator. Nothing whatsoever to do with the ignition coils. Or the ignition system.

    Would not hurt a thing to remove the connectors one at a time and make sure they are electrically clean and secure.

    You don't really need a peak voltage reading meter. Measure standard AC voltage and then just multiply that number by 1.414.

    Hope I don't sound condescending but a flywheel magnet wizzing by the charge coils creates voltage and sends current to a capacitor within the CDI box. When a magnet wizzes by a pulser coil, the electrical power within the capacitor is discharged to the ignition coil. That then causes the spark...

    It is OK not to know something. No one knows it all. When I mention voltage I am referring to the voltage that is induced within the charge coils. Voltage that is fed to the CDI box. Tested once with the wires not connected to the CDI box (what Yamaha calls unloaded) and once again with the...

    When you say red/black wire do you mean the black/red wire? The wire from the high speed charge coil? If so, the ohm specification is 24. But more importantly than the wire resistance is the output from the charge coil. What voltages are you seeing? What are you seeing for the low speed charge...
