Kawasaki Ninja Service Manual: Crankshaft Sensor Peak Voltage Inspection

Kawasaki Ninja Service Manual / Electrical System / Ignition System / Crankshaft Sensor Peak Voltage Inspection

NOTE

Be sure the battery is fully charged.
Using the peak voltage adapter [A] is more reliable way to determine the condition of the crankshaft sensor than crankshaft sensor internal resistance measurements.

Crankshaft Sensor Peak Voltage Inspection

Disconnect the crankshaft sensor lead connector (see Crankshaft Sensor Removal).
Set the hand tester [B] to the DC 10 V range, and connect it peak voltage adapter.

Special Tools - Hand Tester: 57001-1394 Peak Voltage Adapter: 57001-1415 Type: KEK-54-9-B

Connect the adapter to the terminals of the crankshaft sensor lead connector [C].

Connections: Crankshaft Sensor Lead Connector Peak Voltage Adapter Hand Tester Y lead ← R lead → (+) BK lead ← BK lead → (–)

Turn the engine stop switch to run position.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Pushing the starter button, turn the engine 4 ∼ 5 seconds with the transmission in neutral to measure the peak voltage.
Repeat the measurements 5 times or more times.

Crankshaft Sensor Peak Voltage Standard: 1.9 V or more

If the reading is less than the standard, inspect the crankshaft sensor (see Crankshaft Sensor Inspection).

Crankshaft Sensor Inspection

Disconnect the crankshaft sensor lead connector (see Crankshaft Sensor Removal). Set the hand tester [A] to the × 10 Ω range and connect it to the crankshaft sensor lead connector ...

Timing Rotor Removal

Remove the crankshaft sensor cover (see Crankshaft Sensor Removal). Remove the timing rotor [A]. Holding the timing rotor with the flywheel & pulley holder [B] and unscrew the bolt [C]. ...

Chain Slack Inspection
Set the motorcycle up on its side stand. Rotate the rear wheel to find the position where the chain is tightest, and measure the maximum chain slack by pulling up and pushing down the chain midway between the engine sprocket and rear wheel sprocket. A. Chain Slack If the ...

Front Fork Inspection
Holding the brake lever, pump the front fork up and down several times to inspect smooth stroke. Visually inspect the front fork for oil leakage, scoring or scratches on the outer surface of the inner tube. If any doubt about the front fork, it should be checked by an authorized K ...

Spark Plug Condition Inspection
Remove the spark plugs (see Spark Plug Replacement in the Periodic Maintenance chapter). Visually inspect the spark plugs. If the spark plug center electrode [A] and/or side electrode [B] are corroded or damaged, or if the insulator [C] is cracked, replace the plug. If the spark plug is ...
