APPENDIX 193

When the starter motor does not rotate, inspect as follows.
e Make sure that the gear position is in the neutral position. If not, shift the trans-

mission into neutral.
e Inspect the fuse condition. If any fuse has blown, replace it with a new one of the

same amperage.

/\ WARNING

Substituting fuses can cause wiring to overheat, catch fire and/or fail. Use
only standard fuses of the correct capacity and specifications.

e Check the battery cable connections etc. (see page 173). If necessary, tighten
the connecting bolts to securely connect them.

e In case of slow blinking of the turn signal lights, low volume of the horn sound, or
when you slide the engine start/stop switch and hear a click but the starter motor
does not rotate, battery charging status is not good. Refresh the battery's charge
(see page 172) and check if the starter motor rotates.

e Even after a refresh charge, if the starter motor stops rotating the engine properly
the battery may have deteriorated. Have the battery inspected by an authorized
Kawasaki dealer.

lf the starter motor will not start after completing the above inspection and mainte-
nance, there may be something wrong with another part such as the starter motor.
Ask an authorized Kawasaki dealer for inspection and maintenance.
